(CNN)President Barack Obama said Wednesday it would be "difficult" for Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to explain his decision not to consider a Supreme Court nominee without looking like he's motivated by politics.
Meanwhile, Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid suggested a Republican, Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval, as a potential nominee. A source confirmed to CNN that the White House is vetting Sandoval, although he has not been actively involved in the process.
"Neither Governor Sandoval nor his staff have been contacted by or talked to the Obama Administration regarding any potential vetting for the vacancy on the U.S. Supreme Court," according to a statement from Mari St. Martin, his communications director.
This is from Dirty Harry (Lowlife-Nv) so take it with the proverbial grain of salt. Besides, doing something like this (nominating a non-Marxist) would be completely out of character for the Marxist in Chief.

Perhaps not, Rufus. According to Mark Levine, Sandoval has a record which Obama might find quite appealing. He's a proAbort, pro amnesty, total RINO. Like you I think this nomination is not likely, but sounds like, at least according to Mark, Sandoval would fit right in with Zero's "progressive" agenda.
