Moments after we announced the death of RBG on Friday night… Boyd Matheson came on the air and suggested the proper way to honor her memory… would be to emulate her close friendship with Justice Antonin Scalia.  A hard core conservative.  Boyd said to commemorate her passing... “have a polite conversation with someone you disagree with.

A beatuiful sentiment.  But a few minutes after that… Mitch McConnell talked about a replacement and it was off to the races.

o:  a thirteen now

Republicans are salivating at the empty seat on the court.  Democrats are warning of the price to pay… and it’s getting uglier by the minute.  Fund raising was off the charts this weekend… as an IPSOS poll revealed 62 percent of Americans believe this seat is for the next President to handle.  Half of all Republicans say leave it for the winner.

But half say full speed ahead… and the torpedoes could include the next President packing the court with liberals…. which infuriated democrats threaten they *might* do.

They’re playing chicken in Washington…  but really it’s like a vicious cockfight.   one side will win.. but there’s gonna be blood everywhere…. and that as a backdrop.  I remind you to have a polite conversation with someone you disagree with.
