"..... It doesn’t matter what he does, he will still be accused of being unreasonable and a bully. But, hopefully, he will be able to get some credit from rational independents that he made every reasonable attempt to give her a forum to air her grievance. I still don’t think she’ll testify."

I agree with you on all counts.

It will never be fast enough or decisive enough for the "get a rope and hang 'em high" crowd, but this is a delicate political moment just weeks ahead of the midterm. He must give the appearance to the moderates and independents who are inclined to vote Republican that he is making a great effort to accommodate the lady. To do anything less could cost the Republicans the Senate. We may not like those actions but the Republicans have a paper thin majority in a nation which is equally divided.

Senator Grassley and Senator McConnell working in concert have given us more judicial confirmations in the first 18 months of President Trump's term than ever in the history of the United States. And there will be more before the year is out.

Mitch McConnell's speech at the Values Voter Summit is worth a listen, even if, like myself, you are not a big fan of McTurtle:

"...“You’ve watched the fight. You’ve watched the tactics. But here’s what I want to tell you: in the very near future, Judge Kavanaugh will be on the United States Supreme Court,”

Exactly. We can say we tried working with her six... seven ...times and SHE refused. A few days ago the independents thought we’re not being fair to her. We need them to win in 6 weeks. We have to win the house and the senate. Once we do the democrats are toast. Then they will have to put on their hoods join antifia and show everyone who they really are. In a year or two Trump will appoint Ginsburgs replacement and then it will be war. They will be completely unhinged. But God IS on our side.

What makes you think these ‘moderates and independents’ don’t already see this charade for what it is? It’s crystal clear to everyone else.

Bogus excuse, Sa-teef. And by the way, Christine Balsey Ford is no lady.
