Chuck Schumer: "You may win this vote... But you will never, ever, get your credibility back. And the next time the American people give Democrats a majority in this chamber, you will have forfeited your right to tell us how to run that majority."
"You walk a perilous road," Schumer tells Republicans ahead of the ACB vote. "I know you think this will eventually blow over. But you& #39;re wrong. The American people will never forget this blatant act of bad faith."
On the Senate floor before the ACB vote, Chuck Schumer quotes Mitch McConnell from 2013 saying: "You& #39;ll regret this. And you may regret it a lot sooner than you think."

He adds: "I would change just one word. My colleagues may regret this for a lot longer than they think."
Mitch McConnell ahead of the ACB vote: "This is one of the brilliant, admired and well-qualified nominees in our lifetime." He says she& #39;ll be the only justice confirmed with a law degree from "any school not named Harvard or Yale."
McConnell is on the floor saying Senate Dems "pioneered" the use of judicial filibusters. (He& #39;s correct about that.)
McConnell rebuts Schumer, says they have a different account of the judicial wars, and adds: "My version is totally accurate."
