Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) appeared on Fox News this afternoon to discuss Sonia Sotomayor and the time frame for her confirmation hearings.
Two things to take away from his appearance. First, he said Republicans don’t intend to obstruct her nomination. Second, he said Republicans have enough clout to at least delay her ultimate confirmation. Time will tell how Republicans actually respond, but just because Republicans probably won’t filibuster Sotomayor doesn’t mean they won’t drag the process along, raising money and attacking the nominee along the way.
