Justice scalia was the longest serving member of the current Supreme Court with three decades on the bench. His death has huge implications for big cases the court is hearing right now. Terry moran has covered the Supreme Court for us. Good morning, terry. Reporter Antonin Scalia, rare instance where his impact is felt. Some of his highlights no question about it, the second the individual right to bear arms. He was part of bush versus gore and in dissent, he did as much really when he was winning. The real question, theyre shorthanded. Huge cases right before the court right now. On Public Sector employees and the mandatory fees they pay right now. The conservatives had that one lined up. Liberals will likely win that one. Other cases that president obamas actions on immigration, so controversial likely to become before the court. That and so many others, an abortion case, his voice and his vote, if youre going to be conservatively, are going to be very sorely missed. Understandable why that political battle is heating up. Its begun already. Its shaping up to be a monumental fight. Jon karl is at the white house with that side of the story. Reporter good morning, likely extend throughout this president ial campaign and into the first months of the next presidency. The battle over replacing Justice Antonin Scalia came fast and furious. Less than an hour after the Supreme Court announced his death on saturday, Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell declared the vacancy should not be filled until we have a new president. Senator marco rubio told george, the senate shouldnt start the process no matter who president obama nominate. Reporter within the last few months of the president s term we shouldnt be appointing Supreme Court justices. Reporter president obama called scalia a brilliant legal mind made clear he would move forward anyway. Nominate a successor in due time. Reporter theyre vowing to run out the clock until obama that has democrats up in arms. The kind of obstructionism that Mitch Mcconnells talking about. He says no, were not having hearings. Reporter Supreme Court vacancies during an Election Year are extremely rare. While its still early, the short list of president ial obama nominees. It includes merrick garland, a moderate whos won praise from republicans. Circuit court judge jane kelly has won praise from senator grassley. And sri srinavasan confirmed as a circuit judge 970 just three years ago. He would be the first justice of asian descent. No word from the white house when the president would make this nomination. But senior white house officials point out in his two previous Supreme Court nominations he okay, jon, thanks very much. Lets talk to senator lindsey graham. Senator graham, thanks for joining us this morning. Your leader Mitch Mcconnell said flatly, president obama should not have a chance to fill this vacancy, does that mean the choice wont get a hearing. Two things going on at the same time. Very rare that you get a nomination and a selection in an Election Year. I dont think thats happened very much. But the well has been poisoned by our democratic colleague since 2013, changed the rules to approve the appointees by a minority. Your said you could get choice. What does that mean . Somebody, i just threw out orrin hatch a republican senator, thats i voted for soed meier and kagan. When an election is over, the president wins, they have a chance to send qualified nominees of their philosophy to the senate and i will vote for them if theyre qualified even if i would not have chose them. Decided to change the rules in historic fashion to pack the court and that power will have a consequence with me. If Hillary Clinton wins the white house in 2017 and she sends over a qualified person whos liberal, ill intend to qualified. Whats the odds of this vacancy is going to get filled . Very little. Zero . Yeah, very small. State of asking, big primary coming up this weekend saturday. Youre behind governor bush, jeb you been leading the charge with him against donald trump. He still has a pretty big lead in your state, can he be stopped in South Carolina . He become the Michael Moore candidate of the republican party. At the end of the day, i dont know whats going to happen here. Jeb is definitely surging. Donald trump will not win the nomination. If you want to get a replacement for justice scalia, nominate a conservative nominate someone can win. Donald trump cant get 270 lek rat votes. What he said about george w. Bush is Michael Moore stuff. I think that will bite him here. Hes unfit to be president of the united states. If we nominate donald trump were giving not only the Supreme Court nominations to the democrats but control of the government. I got to really reevaluate after what he said about george w. Bush. The Mainstream Democratic Party opposition of george w. Bush, didnt go where donald trump went. Being responsible for 9 11 thats something that comes from the part of america. Were just five days away from South Carolina primary, which could be a critical moment for many of the campaigns and this morning the battle over the Supreme Court is shaping up to be a key issue and abcs tom llamas is here with that. Reporter this week and this primary, so important for candidates like jeb bush and even senator marco rubio, who need a victory, a boost, anything positive as we get tuesday and at this weekends debate was any indication what this primary will look like, candidates better be ready to fight. Republicans agree on one thing, to block any nominee president obama puts forth to replace Antonin Scalia. The senate needs to stand strong. Were not going to give up the u. S. Supreme court. Reporter some still recovering from what many are calling the nastiest debate yet. While donald trump was build building a reality tv show, my brother was building a Security Apparatus to keep us safe. Im proud of what he did. Hes had the gal the World Trade Center under your brothers reign. Remember that. Reporter more than once, the crowd booing donald trump saturday night as he and jeb they lied. They said there were weapons of mass destruction. There were none. Reporter in battle between senators cruz and rubio, started on immigration and ended in a different lang wang. Marco went on univision in spanish and said he would not rescind president obamas illegal amnesty. First of all, i dont know how he knows what i said on univision because he doesnt speak spanish. Reporter cruz later tangling with trump. He supports next ss federal taxpayers youre the single biggest liar. Youre probably worst than jeb bush. Youre the single biggest liar. Reporter on that point, donald trump up early, tweeting, quote, funny that jeb didnt failed campaign and didnt even want to use his last name. Then mommy, now brother. Amy. All right, tom, thank you for that. To reaction from the democratic candidates. Hillary clinton and Bernie Sanders voicing outrage at the republicans and backing president obama all the way. Abcs cecilia vega has the latest from miami, florida. Good morning to you. Reporter amy, good morning to you. For Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders this became a fight against republicans in congress and here on the campaign trail. Bernie sanders said even though he disagreed with Antonin Scalia on every issue, it clears the president makes a nomination, the Congress Confirms it. He wants this process to get under way as soon as possible. And Hillary Clinton. It is outrageous that republicans in the senate and on the campaign trail have already pledged to block any replacement reporter and she says these republicans vowing to block this nomination are dishonoring the constitution, amy. Cecilia, thanks so much. Now to ryan smith with the other headlines starting with a scare on a flight to new york. Good morning, guys.
