Steve's Barking; Constitutional Crises in the US?

The Constitution of the United States clearly states that the president shall appoint Supreme Court justices with the confirmation of the senate.
With the death of a justice the president has a duty under the Constitution to appoint a justice to take his place even though he has only 10 more months in office.
The Constitution implies that a hearing must be held and only then a rejection of the nominee can take place, as happened in the past.
The senators of the United State should do their job, even if it means rejecting the nominee of the president, after all what are the tax payers paying $175,000 per senator for.

If any senator doesn't want to do his constitutional duty that person should resign.
