Have a meeting, run for a podium, have another meeting, send some else to the podium. Make a bunch of phone calls and then release a bunch of talking points to the media.
Am I getting my monies worth out of these slime bags today? NO
But tomorrow will be much different. It will be have a meeting, review the progress and then set up for the weekend talk shows.
How will trwmp and cruz ever survive. lol
“Senators hold all sorts of meetings with all sorts of people,” Ed Whelan, president of the Ethics and Public Policy Center, said on a press call Wednesday afternoon. “I don’t think that the fact that some senators are willing to meet with Merrick Garland means anything.”
If I keep saying it, maybe it will happen.
“I am old enough to remember a few weeks ago when Republicans said uniformly they wouldn’t even meet with our nominee,” Brian Deese – the White House aide who led the efforts a select a nominee – told reporters on a press call Wednesday.
And that, my friends, is how the pros play. There’s basically no way a line that good doesn’t get quoted.

“We’re not wobbling!” = “We’re wobbling badly”
The GOP already starting to crack on this one gives me the chance to link one of my favorite tracks, as a theme for this thread…
“And the cracks begin to show…”
This is basically a win-win. If the Republicans cave, the Court moves to the left, and their base rebels. If the Republicans hold firm, and (70% odds right now) Hillary is elected, the nomination is withdrawn ad the Court moves even further to the left. Those remaining rational Republicans can then deal with the “what-ifs.” It will be too late.
