    Well probably not......... in this environment where everything comes down to a onesided vote, but the fact of the matter is the democrats chose to open this jar, and now its about to bite them in the ass.

    Pence is not the “President” of the Senate.

    President of the United States Senate. As President of the Senate (Article I, Section 3, Clause 4), the vice president has two primary duties: to cast a vote in the event of a Senate deadlock and to preside over and certify the official vote count of the Electoral College.

    What will be enlightening is the GOP losing the Senate and the House come November 6.

    "From what you've read" you came the the simple majority conclusion? Brilliant.

    The GOP was obstructionist and filibustered every nomination. It was Reid's only hope of moving judges through the system.

    You shouldn't have "liked" my post if you're such an expert. Hatch is the acting Pres, hence "Pro Tempore"
