Well, am I ever shocked and surprised.

Lawrence and MSNOW also reporting this story, sourced to "administrated sources."

1. Can he get confirmed?

I doubt it

[Deuxcents]

2. No surprise.. I'm wondering how much he's profiting from this position

Must be worth it to him to sell his soul to TSF

4. He's been auditioning his little black heart out.

I think there is a shot that the Senate will say "Uh.... nope."

5. I hope you're right

3. Well Fetterman will confirm him...................

6. Fetterman would confirm the Squonk if the felon nominated it.

The Hemlock forests of northern Pennsylvania are said to be home to a sad mythical creature known as the Squonk. Pig-like with a saggy skin covered in warts and blemishes, the Squonk spends much of its life weeping. It is very elusive, preferring to hide out of sight in the hemlock woods; however, the legend says that if you do happen to catch a Squonk, it won’t be long before you find yourself with a puddle of tears in place of the beast.

8. Ha! Squonk

My introduction to the concept of a squonk was from, of all things, a British band. The reference to tears comes at 4:39.

9. I had no idea the myth inspired a Genesis song!

7. He knows he will never get confirmed.

I think Blanche might be on his way out.
