All the resistance to the Nomination stem from parties with vested interests who concocted all kinds of weird to idiotic excuses. As with many other issues in the Elections, no one cares about the interests of the US and its ordinary people until Trump came along.
The most important and simple reason that the vacancy should be filled ASAP is not even touched upon by anyone.
Given the strong prevailing risks: remaining SCOTUS members being very old; severe debilitating weather conditions affecting health; highly accident prone situations lately, etc - God forbid, if a further one or two or more SCOTUS Justices may suddenly drop dead or become incapacitated to perform their duties. What then?
Do the rationales of the resistors still hold and wait for the next President to take office.
One thing is certain. Obama will be blamed for not filling the vacancy according to the existing rules.
Vacancies need to be filled as they fall due to take care of contingencies, like Black Swans.
