When Biden made his comment, there wasn't an open seat in the Supreme Court. This "Biden Rule" is more political nonsense by the Republicans. Biden, also, stated the nominee should be consider until the election is over. If Hillary wins, the Republicans will rush to approve Garland, and they will still apply the Biden Rule. The election is over. Now, it is time to do our job. They will take a complete 180, and convince themselves that they have done nothing wrong. It is the nature of the beast.

Ok, I get it. We are not supposed to take the man's word for what he said, rather the evolution of what might have been, could have been, might happen in the future or what is presently occurring. Apparently, someone got into that video clip of him speaking and edited it to reflect not what he really meant, or what he really said, but what we wanted to hear. Is that what you are saying? Depending on which party is in power, we need to be flexible to make sure that the left always gets their way, right?
Like I asked before, why the rush? Are you now afraid that Hillary won't be the next president? You have assured us that Hillary as president is a done deal. So, why hurry the process?
