. >> ron allen, thank you as always. we go to peter alexander, again, getting this from all angles. you're in charleston, south carolina. i think it's fair to see you and i might agree that last week, this was not the number one issue on the campaign trail. justice scalia's sudden death has made it. >> yeah, i think that's exactly right. the power of the pick as it were has definitely poured gasoline on what are already fiery feuds across the republican feed right now. we heard from ted cruz, marco rubio again this morning, all speaking out on this topic. cruz basically saying he believes that this election should be a referendum on the supreme court. both cruz and marco rubio reiterating their belief system that the senate should not confirm any obama nominee, in this, his final and eighth year of his presidency right now. so obviously, what it does is sort of reiterates a point that a lot of these candidates have tried to make in the course of the campaign, which is the significance, the consequences of the decision being made by the american voters next up here in south carolina.
