According to White House sources, John Klink a prominent Catholic, who has worked for the Catholic Church for three decades with the Catholic Relief Services and as a Vatican diplomat at the United Nations, and as consultor to the Pontifical Council for the Family in Rome, is emerging as a consensus replacement nominee.
According to Senate sources, the hold on Glendon is now being pressed by Democrats, with little to no support for the hold from Republicans. “There isn’t much of a desire for a fight over this one,” says a Republican. “If there is a better candidate, and Glendon gets pulled, you’re not going to see a huge outcry. We just want to fill the post and move on.”
