So Flake gets a double scoop of revenge against President Trump. Vote down Kavanaugh and Rats win.

Makes no sense.

Grassely seems to think he can make anyone on the left like him by playing nice. News Flash, aint gonna happen. Just take the damn vote and when the left goes nutz (which they will anyway) let POTUS handle it. POTUS will have no problem swinging his brass ones around and shoring up the base with his bigly tremendous idea of nominating Kavanaugh.

Just take the damn vote!!! Enough of the harlots fainting 36 years later.

And if Flake, Collins and Murkowski go along with this crap, how, exactly, does Kavanaugh get confirmed? The only hope would be for some of the Senators where Trump won “bigly” would decide not to go along with this smear.

>>>Rush has a good point.

Yep, because the GOP base will be demotivated. It will be, once again, "what difference does it make?" That's where I am. No wall, no repeal, no judges, run-away spending. Those are the big four. So, what difference does it really make if the democrats have control? It's REALLY what the GOP wants. They want to be out of power, not actually have to work, come home during recesses, complain to you, the sheeple, and have idiots continue to believe that "THEIR congressman is really fighting for freedom!" and then donate money to the cause.

It's a game. Read my tagline.

It’s the GOP senate who are messing up. The midterms is about the House.

If Grassley doesn’t get a handle on this and just do — and I’ll tell you something else, which everybody also knows. If the Republicans do not get this vote taken and have Kavanaugh confirmed, you can kiss the midterms goodbye. You can kiss goodbye holding the House and you can kiss goodbye holding the Senate

Agreed, their wimpiness is not at all inspiring when they need to energize voters.

Left a few message for Grassley. If he doesn’t get this done, I will be staying home and not voting for my GOP candidates. I’ve had enough of these weak, incompetent republicans

I dunno, I honestly think it’s just a few Republicans like Collins and Flake who have been wishy washy on this. Grassley can’t afford to alienate them when he needs their votes.

If Kavanaugh’s nomination is torpedoed, I will be all the more motivated to vote Republican. If your choices in the election are the guy trying to break into your house and the incompetent sheriff who has done a bad job keeping him out, it’s still better not to vote for the actual burglar.

With all due respect to Rush, it depends.

RINO’s like Flake and Corker want the GOP tonlose the Senate somthst they can blame Trump and even get him impeached. If Grassley doesn’t have the votes because of these two, then why would I “punish”’the GOP by staying at home and giving the retiring RINOs Exactly what they want? Why?!?

Limbaugh: If GOP Does Not Get Kavanaugh Confirmed, Kiss the Midterms Goodbye.

Well, no sh*t, Sherlock. Some folks have a flair for the obvious. He is 100% correct, of course. How can we expect them to govern the country if they let Soros and the communists win this one?

Rush is full on nonsense.

He never even predicted a Trump win. He was so off base then & now.

Gotta hand it to the democrats. They have two of a kind and they have the RINO neocons in congress convinced they're holding a royal flush.

GOP controls the house, senate, presidency, state houses, governors' mansions- still terrified of an enemy that has no leader or platform.

I respectfully disagree with Mr. Limbaugh about RINOs that escaped getting primaried for 2018 elections.

More specifically, if patriots let Democrats win both Houses, for example, in 2018 midterm elections because of problems with Kavanaugh, then not only will that make it more difficult for Pres. Trump to eventually nominate more conservatives to the Supreme Court, but Trump is going to get more bloated omnibus spending bills that he has gone public as refusing to sign.

Note that because of constitutional restraints, since only about one third of senators are up for reelection in a given election year, in order to theoretically completely drain the Senate swamp, patriots are going to have to primary RINOs and vote Republican ticket for 2020 and 2022 as well.

What am I overlooking about what Rush said?

RINOs that survived getting primaried for 2018 elections get a free pass this time imo.

Insights welcome.

No. Most likely, conservatives will come out in droves to cast their votes to stop the circus clowns.

I heard Rush talk about this. He sounded very close to telling us, “It’s time to worry.” I also agree with him that we will lose the midterms if we can’t get Kavanaugh confirmed.

If that’s the impression you got, time to worry, then that’s exactly what Rush was trying to say.

Mitch came out and pretty much said, “There’s going to be a vote, bank on it.”
