Off-Topic Senate Crooks: Sen. John McCain says Senate will not confirm any
Clinton Supreme Court nominee, later softens pledge

An issue that has been mostly absent from this year's Senate
campaigns -- the fate of the Supreme Court -- suddenly erupted
Monday after Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., indicated during a
talk-radio appearance that Republicans would move to block any
high-court nominee made by a President Hillary Clinton should
the Democratic nominee win ... "Senator McCain believes you
can only judge people by their record, and Hillary Clinton has
a clear record of supporting liberal judicial nominees,"
spokeswoman Rachel Dean said. "That being said, Senator McCain
will, of course, thoroughly examine the record of any Supreme
Court nominee put before the Senate and vote for or against
that individual based on their qualifications as he has done
throughout his career." Later in the day, during a campaign
stop in Chandler, Arizona, McCain avoided the more strident
position when responding to a question from local business
officials about the court.

The correct term is "Internet" NOT "internet" -- please don't
fall into the trap of using the latter. It's just plain wrong!
