The Seats of the Senators of the first Class shall be vacated at the Expiration of the second Year, of the second Class at the Expiration of the fourth Year, and of the third Class at the Expiration of the sixth Year, so that one third may be chosen every second Year; and if Vacancies happen by Resignation, or otherwise, during the Recess of the Legislature of any State, the Executive thereof may make temporary Appointments until the next Meeting of the Legislature, which shall then fill such Vacancies.\n\nThe above was the old way and is part of the Constitution.

If 51 Senators (or 50 Senators and a tie-breaking vote by the Vice President) vote in favor of confirmation, then the President's nominee is confirmed, and the nominee takes a seat in the US Supreme Court.

The U.S. Consitution, as adopted in the 18th century, did provide for succession to the office of the President, but did not provide a way to fill a vacancy in the office of Vice President.\n\nThis was covered by the 25th Amendment, which was adopted in 1967.  The 25th Amendment includes the following text, in section 2: "Whenever there is a vacancy in the office of the Vice President, the President shall nominate a Vice President who shall take office upon confirmation by a majority vote of both Houses of Congress."\n\nAnd quoting from the relevant article in Wikipedia (linked below): "Gerald Ford was the first Vice President selected by this method, after the resignation of Vice President Spiro Agnew in 1974; after succeeding to the Presidency, Ford nominated Nelson Rockefeller as Vice President."\n\nSo the answer is not that the Speaker of the House would become the Vice President, but rather that the President selects someone to fill the vacancy, and Congress confirms the appointment.
