Hillary Clinton: Leaving SCOTUS seat vacant ‘dishonors our Constitution’
No, it’s campaign season, and Hillary Clinton is fired up. Unfortunately, she’s fired up about who should nominate a judge to replace the late Antonin Scalia on the United States Supreme Court. Harry Reid and his coalition, which very likely includes the president himself, are urging President Obama to put up a nominee as soon as possible, while Mitch McConnell and crew maintain that the next president should make the decision.

Clinton has weighed in, and, as usual, the “progressive who gets things done” takes a shot at conservatives.

@HillaryClinton would you be pushing for the vacancy to be filled if it were a Republican President?

@HillaryClinton actually there is no law in the Constitution stating how many Supreme Court Justices there must be #knowyourfacts

@HillaryClinton if you truly believed we should avoid "partisan political reasons" then you'd be in favor of waiting 'till voters decide!

@HillaryClinton if the people voted for a democratic senate majority then that wouldn't be a problem. But, ?, they didn't, did they?
