They were not going to do anything to move the nomination forward, period. Their entire plan for 8 years was to thwart Obama's agenda, and after the first 2 years they did just that. Obama had no way constitutionally to get Garland forward, there could be not recess appointment because, under the repugs, congress never went into recess. This was a theft by the repugs of a SC seat, pure and simple. Now we have to control our message and hammer on the repugs inability to govern and their complete disregard for the humans that (already) make America great .
