Terry Eastland Quotes
That Republicans Now Control The Senate Means, Of Course, That They Control The Confirmation Process. Their Majority Enables Them To Stop An Unacceptable Nomination At Various Points: They Can Deny The Nominee A Committee Hearing; They Can Vote The Person Down In Committee; They Can Refuse To Schedule A Vote On A Nomination Sent To The Floor; And The Full Senate Can Vote To Reject The Nomination. The Republicans' Majority Status Also Strengthens Their Negotiating Position With The White House, Making It More Likely That A Mutually Acceptable Candidate Will Be Chosen For A Given Seat.
