Also, he's referencing attempts to require a supermajoirty (as oppose to a simple majority) to confirm the appointment, which is  a far different thing than saying "we aren't going to vote for your guy". 

I think the correlation was that Sen Turtle wanted to follow the constitution until he didn't want to anymore.  

Just adding it to the BS back and forth we're going to have for the next year.
