I don’t know anything about this judge, but some of the knee-jerk misogyny here is laughable.

It is a real eye opener and would not have occurred back in the day when FR was FR.

Good grief: Ainsley Earhardt On Fox and Friends just described Barrett as “extreme, extreme right” ... Pete Hegseth jumped right in and said something like “if she’s extreme, extreme right then so am I”

Her nomination will put inmtense pressure on red state dems to vote for her. Yeah we might lose Sen Snow but we likely pick up 2 or 3 D senators. But even if we don’t we can still call on McCain to cast one last vote. Fly him in on AF1 (he’d like that) wheel him into the Senate for an aye vote.

Amy as the nominee is the rats worst nightmare. Go ahead rats attack a mother of 7 with a stellar resume, let see how the voters react to that.

Judge Napolitano just said on Fox he thinks the pick will be Hardiman or Kethledge. He basically said he does not think Trump wants a fight on abortion and no one knows what those two think about abortion, especially Hardiman. In other words Trump is a coward. The judge says both Barrett and Kavanaugh will be grilled on abortion and might not get confirmed.
If Napolitano is right Trump is not the man I thought he was. I can’t see him running from a good fight and I can’t see him throwing his base under the bus for two people that are a blank check on abortion. We shall know in a few hours.

There's something about Kethledge that makes me hope it's not him...

There is nothing cowardly about President Trump.

McConnell is supposedly pushing Trump to name Hardiman as he thinks it will be easier to get him confirmed.

My friends: This woman has what Sarah Palin didn’t have. A man that will defend and fight for her when attacked. Trump will show that a man’s first duty is to protect their women. He will be provoked and he will respond in a way that women like. I think the Rats know that so they’ll have to use other women to beat her up. Trump can then say that he’s embarrassed that Chuckie needs a woman to stand up for him.

This attack on conservative women goes way back, to Marilyn Quayle. She's an intelligent, accomplished woman and a true conservative woman to be Dan Quayles partner. I wonder about how much better a country we'd be if the DeepState Republican manipulators had nominated Quayle instead of manipulating the nomination for George 2. (whose wife is a flaming liberal) I don't trust conservative men to stay that way if they choose a wife who is understanding (or worse) of those who support the slaughter of pre-separation infants or don't understand/care (which is worse?) that adherence to our Constitution is what made the US great. Too many women are cowards about doing anything but remaining silent or even worse going along with it when surrounded by a gaggle of hateful, self centered women. I'd rather Barrett (1) prove herself for a while as standing firm on her values and (2) it's better she replace one of the three hateful witches than to have to put up with all three of them.

Your assessment of conservative women: don't forget Karen Pence. She's the real deal. Ivanka? I'm not convinced. Her friendship with Chelsea, her tolerance of Planned Parenthood, and her position among the NYC know-it-all crowd is disturbing. I've never heard her give a defense of Deplorable values. Melania: The Lord sent her to steer Donald Trump to giving our nation a chance to save ourselves.

That's my take....pure speculation

“There are some men on FR who believe that “strong conservative women” don’t exist. They think women are, by nature, weak in principle and intellect.”

I agree. And her husband is a tough US prosecutor. Doubt she will be spineless.

FWIW, I had my wakeup call stepping from a ship to a tender to go ashore. A wave hit the ship, and just as I stepped down I twisted my ankle. The natural reaction was all wrong for the surfaces and the dimensions. My knee is still a bit tricky. Now I take stairs, gangplanks, activity carefully. I hold railings on stairways. I take the help offered getting on and off ships and piers. I don't wear heels.

People forget they're on a ship in the ocean and going to shore where things aren't always as expected.

She has been my first choice, based mainly on her connection with Scalia. I watched this video (it’s from shortly before the 2016 election) of her last night. I came away from it less impressed than I expected to be, but I’ll admit I couldn’t get much of a read on her. There are some things I don’t like about the other contenders, so I guess she’s still my first choice, but I’m wavering and not as confident about her as I was.

Judge Nap has gone the way of Lt. Col Peters. He out of touch with this administration and has no sources. He’s a swamp creature.

That is a very true statement. Glad others have noticed the change.

Hardiman is a blank check on abortion, and Trump’s sister is a pro abortion liberal. What does that tell you.
