I tried to figure out the likely aftermath of the election, but I am lacking some data.

Hillary Clinton looks most likely to win as president, but not with a Democratic house and the senate is a toss-up.
So without the House, and with House Republicans controlled by the Tea Party, not much legislation can be passed. Except TPP and such, but lets hope she keeps her current position at that.

But at least she gets nominations and thus the Supreme Court, right?

And here is what I want to ask you: will she be able to pass nominations? Will the republicans continue to refuse to fill the Supreme Court if they retain majority?

If the Democrats hold a majority in the Senate at least there will be hearings, but can the Republicans filibuster nominations?

(If anyone missed it, I am European, I am just trying to understand your election of world supremo over there.)
