Expect the dims to boycott that too. They will all run and hide like a bunch of roaches.
All those Dems on the Committee who failed to show up to vote against her nomination moving forward, should be denied admission to the Senate chamber on Monday when her confirmation vote is held.
Perhaps I should forward this to my “representatives” in the senate. Looking for the “precedent” clause concerning nominations in election years. Anyone? Bueller?
Have the Democrats formally brought up the fact that she once had pineapple on her pizza yet? I expect this to be their major blow and will need to call witnesses. Yea?
Vote to confirm her and then head to happy hour
She will be confirmed by the Senate on Monday. Hope Collins and her evil twin Murkowski get their heads on straight.
The Democrats are seeing the polls that state the majority want her confirmed. If they don’t show up to vote they can tell their base that stood up for them, and also tell normal Americans that they didn’t vote against her. Win/win for them. :-(
If Republicans are in power after November, get rid of these rules. Truman had Court nominees approved same day.
Funny how the Dem nominees get a warm and fuzzy hearing and a typical 100% vote affirmed.
Every conservative nomination to the Supreme Court now has a model on how to handle it down to the dotted I’s and crossed Ts.
How many votes are needed to pass a cloture petition - a simple majority of the entire body, a simple majority of those present, or a 60-senator vote to approve??

I’ve started wondering about the swearing in process. Doesn’t she have to be sworn in by Roberts before she can take a seat????? And if so one has to wonder about Roberts!!
It went down exactly as predicted with the unstoppable Senate vote scheduled for tomorrow and McClowski (sp?) committed to vote ACB in.
