Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell drew his biggest response from the crowd when he reaffirmed his pledge to deny any hearing for President Obama's Supreme Court nominee. On a night when an earlier speaker suggested that Hillary and Ruth Bader Gunsburg both go into retirement (to put it nicely), the Supreme Court was a topic on many delegates' minds. McConnell forcefully delivered exactly what they wanted to hear. The decision of who will replace Justice Scalia -- and perhaps others on the high court -- is the top reason why the choice between Trump and Hillary is a no brainier.
Please note: The postings of "G. Morris", written by John K. Bush and which end in 2016, stated his views as of the dates of posting and should not be understood as current assertions of his views. The postings, which have not been altered since they came to an end, remain on this blog to preserve the historical record. In 2017, Mr. Bush took a position that precludes further public political comments or endorsements. He will no longer be contributing to this blog.
