Is GOP Senate Ready for Obama's Attorney General Fight?

Gird your loins, Beltway Republicans. Election Day is over, but the progressive left is locked and loaded for battle over President Obama’s next U.S. attorney general.

Liberals unhappy with the administration’s failure to deliver a mass illegal alien amnesty fast enough want a consolation prize. The Congressional Hispanic Caucus sent Obama a demand letter last week promoting Labor Secretary Tom Perez as Eric Holder’s replacement. Mother Jones ran with “Why Picking Tom Perez for Attorney General Would Be a Smart Move for Obama.”

California Democratic Rep. Linda Sanchez gushed to Politico: “Being around him makes me a little bit giddy. … He cares about the stuff that I care about, and he’s so articulate about it.” The “stuff” Perez cares about is the bread and butter of radical leftwing identity politics. It’s “social justice”-crusading on steroids.

Is the GOP as currently sitted, able to run out the clock on any Obama nomination/selection to replace Holder...until the new Congress is seated?

Good question. The Dems will try to jam through as many people as they can, especially judges

That would be great, that's what they have done with Fast and Furious, Benghazi, the VA scandal, the IRS, etc.

AG (and perhaps a few federal judgeships) will be a recess appointment.

Wait and see...
