Behold! The Unbridled Power Of Senate Democrats!

We all expected a fight over the President’s SCOTUS nominee, but when the best summation of the Dem’s strategery CNN can muster is:

The nomination of Roberts, a federal appellate court judge, pleased Republicans and prompted Democrats to vow a thorough review in the Senate.

(emphasis mine)
…well, I don’t know what to tell you. “Vow[ing] a thorough review in the Senate”? Sounds like a Monty Python sketch.
Cardinal Ximinez: “Give him, oh dear, give him A Thorough Review!”
*Audience*: *gasp* “Not A Thorough Review!”
Cardinal Biggles: “And then The Comfy Chair?”
Cardinal Ximinez: “Oh, bother. Of course!”
