I have two theories as to why Grassley is behaving like such a baffoon(He knows by the way that he is being played) either they do NOT have the votes to confirm Kavanaugh(My guess, either Flake, Collins, Murkowski, or all three) refuse to confirm him..and since there will be NO Democrats confirming Kavanaugh, it would be a lost cause even trying to seat him..if they had the votes they would have gotten this over with last week. Second theory is that they are terrified this is going to cost them in the midterm elections, which makes NO sense..the morons who are screaming and bitching about Kavanaugh will NEVER vote Republican anyway so who the hell cares what they think

He has to be counting votes behind the scenes and i feel that is what is holding this up.

It isn't about Ford, it's about the RINOs he needs to get lined up behind the vote, and the deals he will have to make to get their votes.

He has to be seen as having bent over backwards and offered her every opportunity.

“I think Grassley lets this run all the way to Election Day ... and not out of incompetence or weakness, either.”

If he lets it go just a few more days, by law ( or more likely just Senate rules) Kavanagh’s nomination just goes away and the RATs have won!

Do we know for sure that Grassley’s latest deadline is 2:30 pm? I saw it noted on one thread, but not from a source that seemed particularly in a position to know. I’ve not seen it reported in any of the news media yet.

ISU 10 -Akron 10. 5:21 left in second quarter.

Game running a little long. Grassley might extend to 3pm.

Give her to the last minute LOL

ABC/CNN News Headline: Here we are in the ABC/CNN
News helocopter as we follow C.B.Ford’s motorcade
as it slowly crosses the Potomac and enters Washington.
The historic journey across this nation began on
Saturday with only a few stops for gas and bathroom
breaks. Mrs.Ford has been in suspended animation for
the duration of the grueling trek to keep her repressed
memories fresh and crisp. Etc.etc. etc.

Extend the invitation until you call for the vote on Monday.

And minutes before the vote is taken, the Dems will say that she is now willing to tell her story on Thursday. They will walk out before the vote is taken.

As we pray and pray for this 2:30 deadline may we also rejoice that God has chosen Brett Kavanaugh as our new Justice of the Supreme Court

I personally believe God is taking Mr.Kavanaugh and all of us through a refiners fire
....and we need to pray thanksgiving for God’s deliverance!!!!,

They’ll eventually get around to a vote. They are so afraid of PC. All the while, a fine as and honorable man twists in the wind. Probably the last Republican we’Ll ever have as a nominee.

Why they run scared of the filthy, scumbag Dems escapes me.

Chuck Grassley has always been one of the very best Republican Senators . He is from Iowa which is a state which often produces wise and rock solid people, which is the case with Chuck. I trust him completely and do not doubt him one bit.

I agree and Grassley deserves the benefit of the doubt for now. But his flaw may be that he is actually somewhat of a normal human, and he is dealing with evil sub-humans like Chuck Schumer and Kamala Harris. Grassley may not be capable of understanding how low the dems will go.

I know it sounds a little far fetched for the Republicans, but give that Even HuffPo could conduct a poll showing that anyone believes Ford maybe their intentionally letting this drag out in an attempt to make the Dems look even worse.

No, Judge Kavanaugh will not get his good name back. This dirty trick by Democrats has also marred the memories of his spouse, the two daughters, and his parents.

Everlasting shame on Dianne Feinstein and Christine Blasey Ford.

Please stop posting this bullsh!t on FreeRepublic. This has been debunked repeatedly over the last 12+ hours.
