If I resign any time this year, he could not successfully appoint anyone I would like to see in the court. [The Senate] took off the filibuster for lower federal court appointments, but it remains for this court. So anybody who thinks that if I step down, Obama could appoint someone like me, they’re misguided. As long as I can do the job full steam…. I think I’ll recognize when the time comes that I can’t any longer. But now I can."David Oscar Markushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18386723948607633980noreply@blogger.comBlogger8125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9615048.post-29640706222570089072014-09-25T19:23:02.362-04:002014-09-25T19:23:02.362-04:00MJMJAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9615048.post-45447124358054763472014-09-25T12:08:23.754-04:002014-09-25T12:08:23.754-04:00Who's on the short list to replace Holder?Who's on the short list to replace Holder?
