@jadler1969 @KevinMKruse Bush judicial wars featured R leaders like McConnell threatening to go nuclear over those filibusters. didn’t have to because the gang of 14 paved the road. if Rs had allowed Obama to fill those seats, no reason/basis for Reid to nuke — PolitiTweet.org

@jadler1969 @KevinMKruse also, the criticism of Dem filibusters then are legit. a party that doesn’t run on judges can’t claim a mandate to block after losing to a party that does. but the ‘13 situation was not the same as 00s. — PolitiTweet.org
