Kavanaugh can only be stopped by one narrow path (Trunc.)

Article's full title:

"John Fund: Kavanaugh can only be stopped by one narrow path -- Durbin, Schumer know what it is"

Excerpt from article:

You could almost hear liberals gnash their teeth Monday night as President Trump nominated Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. They know they have almost no chance of preventing his confirmation.

Kavanaugh is widely liked in Washington legal circles. He gave a humanizing introductory speech after the president introduced him at a White House ceremony.

Bottom line is only way to stop Kavanaugh is to get either Collins or Murkowski to vote against him and there's little or no chance of that happening because either would be devastated in her next primary if she did.

I’m not so sure. Murkowski looks like she could get away with murder in Alaska. The fact that she’s there proves she practically did.

Really? That’s important. Not sure I would’ve thought that necessarily, but I like your line of reasoning. I guess Maine did elect that conservative governor, right?

agree 100% ... and there’s always the slim possibility that McCain will do the right thing and resign in time for his replacement to vote for this confirmation ...

Normally the Republicans are happy to play the Washington Generals to the Dems Harlem Globetrotters.

But I think with all the crap they played with Bush’s judges and then Harry getting rid of the filibuster was way too big of an insult for even the most hardcore spineless RINO that they are going to shove these judges down the Democrats throats no matter what.

I hope you are right.

In any case, I predict that the corrupt MSM will fall all over themselves to butter up Collins and Murkowski. Watch them over the next few weeks or months, they will be slobbering all over them hoping against hope to get them to pull an Arlen Specter type move.

I see him was probably okay, nothing to get excited about in a positive way. But he’s probably the best we will get in this modern era. Another East Coast ivy league Catholic DC swamp creature, albeit probably the best example of that type we could ever hope for.

If Murkowski, Collins or Paul derail this, it is a grave mistake and could hurt us badly. Everyone remember when the RNC senate committee backed murkowski against the tea candidate? Now it’s coming back and rewarding us.

I have already seen joking memes that they want to donate their organs to her to keep her alive.

I like John Fund sometimes. He’s insightful here.
