A dish best served in the Senate dining room

By the cold-hearted Michael Cannon;
Since Democrats effectively linked judicial nominations and ObamaCare, Republicans could even offer to restore the filibuster on judicial nominations in exchange for Democratic votes on repealing ObamaCare. Vulnerable Senate Democrats who want to block future Republican judicial nominees could conceivably go along. Some Republicans might think that’s a lousy trade. They should consider that every day ObamaCare remains on the books, its subsidies (legal or illegal) are minting new pro-ObamaCare voters, which will frustrate their efforts to reshape the courts.
