This is the most historic moment in Supreme Court history in our lifetime, no question about it. These are justices who are going to serve for decades.

There's nothing in the Constitution that says the President stops being President in his last year.

It's hard not to have a big year at the Supreme Court.

The nation will be shaped for decades by decisions that are made by President Bush and the Senate about the future of the Supreme Court.

It's been 80 years since the Senate has confirmed a Supreme Court nominee who was nominated during an election. And particularly when the court hangs in the balance, it makes no sense whatsoever to give Barack Obama the power to jam through a judge in the final election year.

The Supreme Court, once in existence, cannot be abolished, because its foundation is not in an act of the legislative department of the Government, but in the Constitution of the United States.

If the constitution goes, I go.

The president appoints the judges. Your lives and your children's lives can change by all of these appellate court judges who will be appointed who will reinterpret laws, and things can change.

If the president is allowed to suspend constitutional rights on his own personal whims, our free republic has effectively ceased to exist.
