I think the one that made me almost vomit was Patrick "Leaky" Leahy holding up a Constitution as a prop.  What a buffoon.  On the GOP side it isn't hypocrisy, it is payback time for the Democrat's failure to uphold and defend the Constitution.  Besides, all the GOP has to do is keep shooting down nominees until his term ends.  Very Constitutional but also very obvious what they are doing.....as I said, the voters should decide who will pick the next SCOTUS associate justice.  

Having said that, it would not surprise me in the least if McConnell and the Senate go limp on this and we end up with a so-called moderate, which is code for they will vote in lockstep with the left wing justices.  That is the history of the modern Supreme Court.  All those nominated by a Dem president vote the same way on almost every case.  It's only the GOP nominated justices that swing with the wind ala Kennedy and Roberts.
