I don't think they'll have the numbers to filibuster, and even if they did, I'd be unhappy should they go that route. I think filibustering nominees is despicable. Let the nominee have an up or down vote. You don't like the nominee, win elections. I have no doubt I will not like who he chooses, but the reality is it is his choice and that individual (and the President) should get an up or down vote.
I am certain there will be calls to fight back in the same way, and I'm sure the dems will act shocked and as if this had never happened before should it happen. This is not to say the nominee should not be thoroughly examined.
