"Nobody even seems to care anymore." Sorry, but I can't agree with that assessment. A lot of folks are getting quite angry about it. Sadly, many of them have given up & don't even vote. IMO, that leaves a larger proportion of partisan voters, which isn't good at all. Throwing your hands up in the air & just accepting increasingly inappropriate behavior just steepens this slippery slope. BTW, equating what Senators are saying about judicial nominees to a talk show host's comments about "extreme feminists" isn't appropriate. We should expect far more from elected officials & their representatives when dealing with serious issues. And impugning the reputation of judicial nominees by them is outrageous IMO. And any overreaching by Republicans on this issue thus far does not excuse or diminish the seriousness of what the Democrats have done.
