The Republican National Committee is launching an ad, research and public relations campaign to derail President Barack Obama’s nominee to the Supreme Court.
The RNC says it’s forming a task force to advocate against any candidate Obama picks. The party is teaming up with Republican opposition research group American Rising Squared.
Obama is expected to announce his nominee as early as this week.
The RNC has already been looking into candidates on Obama’s short-list and will oppose him or her with radio and digital ads, petitions and research documents. The committee says it’s building a list of “surrogates” who will make the case in the media.
The party is also naming Democrats it will target including Hillary Rodham Clinton and Senate candidates including Colorado’s Michael Bennet and Ohio’s Ted Strickland.

Sens. Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire, Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, Richard Burr of North Carolina, Patrick J. Toomey of Pennsylvania, Thom Tillis, of North Carolina, and John McCain of Arizona say the Senate could consider our President’s pick.
How can the RNC buck these people.
Even Fox News legal analyst Peter Johnson Jr. said Mr. McConnell and other Republicans are making a mistake by vowing to block any Obama nominee, and they should “recalibrate immediately.”
The GOP, my party, should not be the “Party of ‘NO!'” Now it is the party of ‘No Way’!
Stupid!
The Democrats are very eager to get another radical Liberal into the Supreme Court to tip the balance to those who would open all the bathrooms to all genders like DiBlasio did. The wisest thing is to wait for a Republican president and then appoint a decent person to the supreme court.
all of the presidents energy is now focused on this.
