The GOP controlled the Senate and the GOP rejected the nominee.  Stop picking nits about the method they used.  No point in bothering with hearings and a vote that they knew would fail.  There is no requirement in the Constitition that the Senate vote on a nominee.  They are required to advise and provide consent or not. 

A little history here for you just because I know how illiterate you are.  There have been a grand total of 37 unsuccessful nominees to SCOTUS in the history of the country.  Of these, 11 were rejected in a roll call vote, 11 were withdrawn by the President and the remaining 15 never got a vote before the end of the session.  So more nominees never got a vote than were rejected and more nominees never got a vote than withdrew.  As I stated quite accurately and cogently, Obama nominated and the Senate rejected and did so with plenty of prior precedence. 

But hey, when you get your knowledge from the gov't media it is no wonder you are ignorant of history and illiterate when it comes to the how government actually works.  You make this so easy Goofy I am not sure why you keep coming back for more humiliation.
