The road to the white house began in iowa, the caucuses which date back to 1972 and then we move to new hampshire, the quintessential first in the nation primary which has a long and rich history, and now we really begin to test the candidates and their message. We miss out to south carolina, the first seven primary and then to the Party Caucuses in nevada for the democrats and the republicans. More than likely, we will see a number of candidates probably drop out of the race, so the field with a narrow, and that we move into early march. Super tuesday, the start of winner take all primaries, which means that the delegate count will be critical. As it watch the delegate count continue for the candidates, with a better sense of this message is resonating, and to us on the path to the nomination. President obama held a News Conference and was asked about the Supreme Court vacancy left by the death of Justice Scalia. The 2015 present shall campaign and the ongoing conflict in syria, the p
United states, and we are grateful not only for his service, but for his family service. About what is supposed to happen now. When there is a vacancy on the Supreme Court, the president of the United States nominates someone. The senate is to consider that nomination. Either they disapprove of that nominee or that nominee is validated to the Supreme Court. Historically, this has not been viewed as a question. Theres no unwritten law that says it can only be done on off years. That is not in the constitutional text. Im amused when i hear people who claim to be strict interpreters of the constitution suddenly reading into it a whole series of provisions that are not there. Theres more than enough time for the senate to consider, in a thoughtful way, the record of a nominee that i present, and to make a decision.

So, profit point number one is hd, which is not, coincidentally, breaking out here. Se
That doesnt satisfy me. I think we should have been much tougher and should not have allowed that part of the discourse to enter into an agreement on Nuclear Weapons with iran. Based on what you know right now and youre a good head counter in the house of representatives assuming almost all of the republicans in the house, and thats the majority vote against it the president vetoes that you need a twothirds majority to override a veto, do you think the president will have enough democrats to back him to keep this deal alive . Its too early to say. This is why i fought so hard with others to have this 60day review period so we could take the time necessary to make a judgment on the deal and not based on the politics of whether there would be a veto or not. My sense is based on my conversations with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle, it will be very close in both the house and the senate. Both on approving or disapproving the deal then a veto. The president needs 145 votes to sust
