White House considering nominating Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval to SCOTUS, Sandoval rejects WH offer

[MrSinnister]

timeframe til end of march? april? or what u thinkin

i think thats reasonable

Are you talking Obama won't send him up to be nominated at all, or confirmed? He's pretty much very close to being nominated. If it's nominated, I'll give a window of March 17 to see if he is, through April 17th for the ban.

Confirmation can last into the Summer. I'm down for whatever, and mad respect that you're a man who puts power behind your thoughts , even if I disagree.

for Sandoval to be the justice before april 17th, well just keep it that simple and this concerns no other names. he is, or is not

let the games begin

I don't know, your definition seems like confirmation. I really don't think it'll get filled that fast. But I win if he gets nominated and not withdrawn by April 17, you win if he does

Deal

oh nah i did mean, confirmation if he nominated him. the "situation the repubs wouldnt pass up"

i have no idea if obamas really gonna nominate this dude but my bet was on repubs rejecting sandoval. well see what happens. i guess we wait n see if he gets nominated

Yeah, I'll stay flexible. If he gets nominated, we'd set the parameters then. If someone else gets nominated and not rejected by a certain period, I'll take the ban. This is a very hard bet btw, if you know about SCOTUS nomination processes. But a Sandoval nomination would be the easiest to wager from. I seriously doubt the Republicans are going to reject dude. It makes NO rational sense, and I see this all as theatre.

Why nominate a Republican

I legit don't understand. Clinton is probably going to win the election anyway so if the Senate won't cooperate you'd be better off waiting it out.

Not necessarily true. New national polls have Bernie up now. He has the juice now Grandpa That momentum is a motherfukker. Hillary may squeak by South Carolina because Clyburn's sellout ass is very respected out there and he finally gave his endorsement when it was worth the most, but Super Tuesday is another beast.

On a side note, anyone who says the count is 50/50 GOP/Democrat is braindead. Do you even know how many people DON'T VOTE?? Don't you know of people known as Independents? Do you even tally the 3rd and 4 parties that spring up?

I would say that 38% of voters are Republican and 48% are Democrats. The rest are independent and others, because we have won 2 straight elections.

But a real head of the party doesn't lead to just lead the current paradigm, he leads to CHANGE THE MOTHERfukkER. He's there to make his base so rabid about what he's giving to them, that he flips the other side that wants to be a part of it. Obama NEVER did that, and guess what? Yeah, got that ass whipped in the midterms. Bush did but Iraq killed his momentum. But he did get the full Congress back when he needed it, just not for long.

So pipe down with all that caping.

He nominates Blacks to do the dirt to their own people, like Eric Holder vs Banks in the biggest thrown fight on the planet. No way he's gonna put us on the court to have some real prestige.

 

[MrSinnister]

So he is looking at nominating a guy who the Repubs would normally be quick to push through for what reason exactly? To show how hypocritical they are if they block Sandoval? What good does that do anyone considering we all know already that the GOP is full of obstinate asshats.
And what if they pull a swerve and usher Sandoval through with no problem? Then we get another conservative on the bench. All just to prove something in Obama's game of chicken with the GOP? fukk that shyt.
If Obama is going to nominate someone he should choose Jeh Johnson or Kamala Harris.

Game is already thrown brah. No way they pass this up, if the nomination goes through. The only way it could work put, is if Obama's trying to get them to look intransigent, and out on camera blocking that pic. If they accept him, and this was a Obama trial ballon, then he's stuck, and the media would hold him to it. Very stupid to even float this, if it had little chance of happening.

Complete betrayal of his original base.

Breh if they give the president a supreme court justice no matter if he is a republican, best believe they losing the house, senate, and a dem walking back in that white house. The far right not having that. This a republican former governor that is for the affordable care act. The president playing these dudes. Thats if he nominates him. I you for your conviction on this though

An OSU nom? A Republican one at that?

[AV Dicey]

He's clearly trolling, republicans overreacted (as usual) and have put themselves in a corner. Whoever he nominates, even Scalia's long lost twin they cant confirm, if they do it just reaffirms their bases suspicions of they being a bunch of weak kneed pansies who have been bullied by Obama and they will rally harder to Trump's side. If they don't they're are viewed as obstructionists and lose the independents. Either way it doesn't help them during a general election and Obama n nem have a whole year to whip this shyt into a frenzy. You on the other hand can rant and rave all you want but are still gonna vote for the democrat's nominee and if not your whole family will so its no loss to Obama and the democrats.

Its not even chess its just that Republicans in the age of Obama have become a reactionary party and anyone with a high school education can defeat them. Thats why they have Donald J Trump as their potential leader.

 

[MrSinnister]

Goddamn, Democrats are in love with these wishy-washy loyalty having Spanics. It's like a person being loyal and a pumper their wholes lives, and getting pushed aside for the new people, given a mop, and "asked" to get the place cleaned up for the party. You may get free drinks, but ain't nobody fukking with you hardcore like that.

They only go to Black people when they get all depressed and want that dog to put his paws on their lap and let the know they're loved, and the dog would never go anywhere. Black people should be our natural political larty, and that's Progressive or Socialist.
