Mitt Romney stated he will support reversing the “McConnell Rule,” claiming that the “historical precedent” is that the Senate can confirm a nominee of their OWN party in an election year but not a nominee of the opposing party. This is, as you might imagine, a complete lie. Who was the last Supreme Court justice confirmed by the opposing party during an election year?
Hint: The seat opened up the year before, but there were some hijinks in the process that ended with the nominee being voted on in an election year.
