This entire argument illustrates why the left is so bad on this issue. They think it says whatever they want it to say. Explains the entire judicial philosophy of the left.
Please feel free to point out which part of Constitution you feel is being ignored. Do keep in mind that the Constitution does not say how many justices there should be and it gives the Senate the power to set it own rules. The Senate has advised Obama not to try and fill the seat and told him that he will not get approval if he does. As he and Hillary are fond of saying election have consequences and this is the consequence of losing all those Senate seats.
since so much power now rest with the courts it is a good thing to have it as ballet issue.
