“While there is a precedent for changing the rules in the Senate, there is none for the type of obstructionism we’re seeing from the modern Democratic party. As Hugh Hewitt and Duane Patterson point out, there was exactly 1 judicial nominee filibustered on the Senate floor in the 20th century — the ethically challenged judge Abe Fortas. There have already been 10 such filibustered nominees in the 21st century, and we’re only 5 years in.”. –Larry Kudlow, co-host of CNBC’s “Kudlow & Cramer”

Update: And even there, there are arguments that say Abe Fortas was not filibustered.
