1. American Isner:

   I wasn't making any inroads on his serve at all and he was the better player for 85 % of that match, of course, I got a little lucky at 4-4 but once I got up 5-4, I had a lot of momentum, and I think I showed that in the tiebreaker.

   Under the Constitution, yes, the vice president casts the tie-breaking vote, now whether or not that's in good taste is something else and it could very well lead to further politicization of the Supreme Court. But as a matter of procedure, it seems to be pretty straightforward. If there's a tied vote, the Vice President is authorized by the Constitution to cast that tiebreaker.
