To the Editor:
Given the current Republican presidential primary debacle, it would seem that Senate Republicans would be wise to work with President Obama to fill the Supreme Court vacancy while they are still a majority. With Donald Trump as their candidate, they risk losing not only the White House but also control of the Senate and the chance to have a say in who fills the vacant seat.
But then again, in this political climate, who is wise?

Note from KBJ: Two things: First, the debacle is on the Democrat side, where Hillary Clinton is being coronated. Republicans are having meaningful debates about policy. Second, the Republican Party has all but imploded. Donald Trump is trying to save it. Remember John McCain and Mitt Romney? Could Trump do any worse?
