because.....Sandoval is aligned with and endorsed by someone as crooked as Harry Reid who single handedly stopped Kate's law:

Fritz, you have an amazing grasp of the obvious.

Obviously it's gamesmanship. But the Republicans can no longer claim that they are rejecting a justice for being liberal. They will be obstructing just to obstruct. I am grateful that the GOP thinks this is a winning strategy.

Wait a minute. Someone claimed there was no such thing as a 'Centrist Republican'. Aren't they all radical right wing extremists?

Other than Sandoval's John Birch Society-esque defense of the Bundy's, Sandoval is a Reagan Republican. That used to be considered pretty far right, huh? Not anymore.

So, President Obama is considering a radical right wing extremist Republican for the Supreme Court? I guess those views must be pretty mainstream nowadays.

No, someone like Marco Rubio is a radical right wing extremist - that is a mainstream Republican. Sandoval is just a right-wing Reagan Republican.

And I don't think he's seriously being considered - I'm guessing it's gamesmanship.

Well first it was there aren't ANY centrists...only radical right wing extremists. Now it's only Radical Right Wing Extremists and Reagan Republicans, but no Centrists. I guess it depends on whether you want to go with the definitions as evidenced by current journalists, newspapers and political publications or Forky's own personal private definition from his understanding of politics 50 years ago.

Oh well. I guess it really doesn't matter. As Forkush points out, even if Sandoval was a Centrist, President Obama is only using his name for political posturing anyway.

And by today's standards, Tea Party Republican Marco Rubio is now called a "moderate." I bet I could find a whole bunch of headlines calling him a "moderate." And what would that prove? He's a right-wing extremists, just like the day the tea baggers fell in love with him.
