Rather than muck up Scalia's thread with all the fighting about who and when we get a new nominee, why don't we keep the disagreements in here.
The man died, and whether you agreed or disagreed with his positions or sharp barbs, that's not the place to argue over his replacement.
Politically, the GOP will be making a huge mistake if they drag this out to the election...that gives democrats plenty f reason to turn out the vote.
Similarly, I hope Obama goes for a more moderate centrist here. Better chance of getting a confirmation, and I prefer my justices to be more moderate and willing to look at each case on the merits.
