Bear in mind that the GOP's hold on the Senate is tenuous. Many GOP senators come from relatively blue states, so I'm not personally offended if they genuflect in the direction of Garland for so long as McConnell holds firm. We will need the squishy votes for lots of things come 2017. Forcing them to come on too strongly now could cost the GOP the Senate.I think the republicans have done a lot of harm by being afraid to do what is right and trying to play in the middle because they are afraid of what might happen. The democrats don't sorry about playing in the middle and are as far left as they can while the republicans are afraid to be too far right conservative.
