I agree. also hearing there are subtle signs, that GOP-led Senate might consider President Obama's nominee in a lame-duck session.
I know Ohio's Rob Portman, already in a tough race, will feel more pressure. As the nominee gains broader exposure through media, GOP position to not hold hearings will become more untenable, IMO.
