> If blame belongs anywhere, it's with power-hungry Republicans that refused to do their Constitutional job and vote on a vacant court seat nearly a year out from the end of Obama's second term.

That particular nonsense makes me think all appointments should be "default yes" or "will approve". That is, after a nomination, Congress should get like 90 days (arbitrary date; people smarter than me can figure out what the real one should be) to *reject* the nomination, or it goes through even if they fail to act. They would still have the power and responsibility they do now; they'd just lose the ability to indefinitely stonewall.

Of course, since this would require Congress to implement new rules on Congress, I'm under no delusion that this will happen. Much like how they shouldn't be able to use people's livelihoods as a bargaining chip ("government shutdowns"), and I'm not holding my breath there either.
