The press corps that spent 25 years or so blaming all of the ills of Washington, the fact that it all got so mean and tipnronnie didn't go for drinks anymore, on the "Borking" of Bork (who was quite the lunatic), will treat as perfectly normal the claim that a president with almost 11 months left in his term has no right to nominate anyone to the Supreme Court.
The title of this post is wrong, for reasons I leave as an exercise to the readers.
