R's control everything. If they can't pass something it is their fault. IMHO Trump didn't like this bill and is glad it failed.

They put this together like the travel ban and received the same result. Now we move on to tax reform like that is going to be easier.

Was only a matter of time. Like a judge once told me. When he sees smoke this many times you can bet your life there is going to be a fire.

True. I meant to write that.

Looks like we are headed nuclear on Gorsuch. My feeling is that the Dems are overplaying their hand over here. They have not been making the case to the public as to why Gorsuch should not be confirmed. Most of what we have been hearing is that the nominee should be blocked no matter who it is in revenge for Garland. Under those circumstances the Rs have a much easier case to nuke since it is not specific to this nominee and they certainly have a right to confirm someone. This would then ensure that future nominees would be confirmed as well even if they will reallly change the ideology of the court and would be an easier case for the fillibuster.

Big mistake for the R's to take this route just as it was a mistake when the D's did it for lower court nominations.
