If JFK had to say "I will not use my article of faith to legislate" not because he wrote the laws, but because he also signs them. So he does have a say. He can sign or veto a bill, which is STILL having a say.

Not surprisingly, it's Senators up for reelection (especially in blue states) that are afraid of being labeled as obstructionist.

Somewhat amusingly, former John McCain strategist Steve Schmidt says, "To defeat a presidential nomination, it is usually better to derail it slowly over time — not announce blanket opposition up front." Sound's a lot like the Romney campaign's Etch-a-Sketch metaphor. I'm not at all a good bullshitter myself but here's something I can figure out: Don't TELL them you're going to bullshit them!

The best way to handle a SCOTUS block and rejection is just to forget about it. So when the dummies turn down your first nominee you don't go into a tizzy and put up another one. You simply let it sit vacant. When they start to complain you put up the guy that they had just rejected.
