And there's one Republican Senator from alot of states. That's how Republicans were able to block so many Clinton nominees.

I don't know how they got that rule in the first place, but the point is that Republicans rescinded the rule when they gained the Senate. So Dems don't have anywhere near the kind of power to block appointments that two-faced Orrin Hatch and his fellow thugs did.
