I don't think that they necessarily should confirm him. I simply find it ironic that Republican Senators are filibustering a Republican former Senator.
If he does step aside, which I'm sure would make some people very happy, think about who Obama is going to nominate next. Think the TP's going to go for him?
It's only ironic if you think a political party should always support those who claim to be a member of the party regardless of what they do - that would, ironically, make you a Democrat.
If Obama nominates someone else, equally unacceptible, I would expect a similar reaction.
