@NormOrnstein Those that don't filibuster should be primaries. This is a stolen seat. Not a usual situation.

Clarence Thomas is a party hack. Rehnquist was a party hack. It happens.

maybe that's enough under the circumstances. But it doesn't keep him off the court and doesn't have any obvious political upside

your piece is great but doesn't address the 64k q: what does a filibuster actually accomplish other than making dems feel better?

It helps identify the Dems in need of a primary challenger and raises the profile of the fight.
