re: #71 Hecuba’s daughter

I am still trying to decide whether if Hillary had been elected President, the Court would have have a pro-choice majority or if the Court would have only 7 members because McConnell would refuse to approve any Clinton nomination (Kennedy would never have retired if Hillary were President).

I don’t think he had a fig leaf big enough to deny a hearing and/or vote in the first month of a Clinton presidency (although I suppose he could have whipped his caucus to vote down the nominee).
