    No chance Obama makes this next appointment

    Hard to predict. The GOP obstructing the nomination all the way into the election could absolutely sink the Republicans chances for President. It's a lose-lose for the GOP.
    GOP plays hardball, blocks the nomination, ergo enduring 11 months of awful press, thereby losing the senate and the presidency.

    If the GOP really goes through with keeping Obama from being able to select a justice, they deserve @owen538
    It'll bring out the conservatives by the bus load
    Independents win elections.

    I wouldn't say that conservatives coming out in bus loads won the election. But I was surprised how even the moderates were.

    The recess appointment would be best.

    Let Obama put his gay male, Arab, or transgender in place.

    Then when the new President is elected we can change direction ... Or not

    Big turnout usually helps the Dems - minorities, women, helots, ducks. If the Senate holds up Obummer's nominee they hand the Dems an issue for the Senate races - in a year the Dems look to be picking up seats (not an editorial comment - just a favorable map). Give the wimmens and the blicks a reason to show up and it could go very poorly.

    Maybe the most chincredible outcome would be for the GOP to stall, Hillary to get elected, and put Obummer on the bench.
