Sen. Mike Lee and his ever watchful best Senate friend.

Extremist Sen. Mike Lee, Ted Cruz’s best Senate buddy, seems to be at the top of every conservative's wish list for the next Supreme Court Justice. That's if—big if—they also get the White House. There's even the suggestion that Republicans would go nuclear on filibuster reform to get him there.

Prominent conservatives are lobbying Donald Trump to say that he will nominate Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) to the Supreme Court if he’s elected president. And Trump’s main rival for the nomination, Ted Cruz, has already said he’d consider his best friend in the Senate for the seat that opened with Antonin Scalia’s death. […] Key Senate Republicans said privately that they would probably wind up invoking the nuclear option for Supreme Court nominees if their party manages to both win the White House and hold the Senate majority in November.

The Supreme Court is everything. Which means getting the Senate back in Democratic hands means everything this cycle.
