When President Obama first nominated Merrick Garland to the Supreme Court, Senate Republicans were united in their wall of opposition -- no meetings, no hearing, no vote.
And while Garland's path remains a very uphill battle, some Republicans are starting to shift their tone.
Two weeks into the nomination fight, 16 Republican senators now say they will meet with Garland -- over 25 percent of the GOP caucus -- according to a running count by NBC News.
That includes senators up for re-election in Blue States, such as New Hampshire's Kelly Ayotte and Illinois' Mark Kirk, who will be the first Republican to actually meet with Garland when they talk Tuesday.
The list also includes Republicans in Red States, such as Oklahoma, Alaska and Kansas.
Keep praying, Advocating to persuade GOP to END Politics and Nominate the more than competent, eligible, deserving, Judge Merrick Garland!!
