      They’d probably extend the Garland Precedent to the vast majority of lower court nominees. New normal could well be judicial confirmations are at a standstill unless same party controls White House and Senate.https://twitter.com/chrislhayes/status/944034821487169537 …

      Under appreciated aspect of battle for Senate: *if* D’s could manage a majority, they could use the Garland Precedent to hold off any SCOTUS noms until 2021.

      I think that’s almost certainly the equilibrium we’re headed towards. It’s, in some ways, the only one that makes sense at this point. (From a power politics perspective)

      I don’t think Dems would do it. Not in their DNA.

          If the generic ballot numbers are any indicator (I know it’s early), that proposition may well be put to the test.

          True story. I'm still waiting for House Dems to defund the Afghanistan war like they promised they would if they came to power in 2006.

          Agreed, Dems keep thinking that if they take the high road the other side naturally will too. I think the base is beginning to realize that that is no longer the case. Dynamics may be changing.

          Parties don't really have "DNA" that guides their actions. The GOP has shown us that.
