Good. This means the filibuster is on the way out.

Hillary needs to put forward a nominee who can pass the Senate.  It's her Constitutional duty!
But seriously if you guys go that route, an argument could be made that silence is consent, and any nominee not rejected in an up or down vote is approved, forcing them to stay for votes.
