That's kinda surprising to me. (Why do they think they can get Breyer to retire, for example?)
.@OrinKerr I have no inside info. But the kind of respect Garland has commanded will deter Dems who would otherwise try to block him

honestly, none of them seem ready to retire to me.

I don't know enough of the politics on the Dem side, but that's pretty interesting.

Why Breyer? I read RBG's statements about Trump as a signal of her pending retirement with an HRC win.

Do you think there is any chance he would withdraw and let Clinton make the nomination?
