Judge Andrew Napolitano reacted this morning to President Obama's nomination of Merrick Garland (http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016/03/16/obama-reportedly-to-make-supreme-court-nomination-as-early-as-wednesday.html?intcmp=hpbt2) to replace the late Antonin Scalia on the Supreme Court.
Garland, 63, is Chief Judge of the United States Court of Appeals in D.C. Napolitano called Garland the "consummate Washington D.C insider," having worked as a prosecutor in the first Bush administration before being nominated as a federal judge by Bill Clinton.
"Judge Garland is the most conservative nominee to the Supreme Court by a Democratic president in the modern era," said Napolitano.
