The process that will be pursued is completely Constitutional. The founders intended the Senate to "advise and consent" on nominees and vote with a simple majority, not a super majority.

Interestingly, Nancy Pelosi admitted that the other day in something I heard on the radio - have no link to a transcript. She basically said that since these judges are life time appointments, they should have to have a super majority vote. Well, if that's what you think, fine - change the Constitution. It isn't how the Constitution is currently written.
