I’ve never liked Cowski. Not really surprised. I hope she pays dearly for being a traitor to the American people.

Alaska republicans ALREADY did that... then she appealed to democrats and won as an “independent” precisely to screw the party and do things like this.

I wonder if it had anything to do with Dianne Feinstein (D-Beijing) obviously threatening her in The Senate corridor the other day?

John Cornyn’s gift to the GOP. As Chair of the NRSC he could have supported the conservative Republican candidate for Senate, Joe Miller, but instead chose the sore loser ‘independent’ lefty Murkowski. Heck of a job there, Johnny.

With the witch MurKowski voting no, if Collins votes no, Kavanaugh is done. No way in hell coward Manchin would vote to put Kavanaugh over,

Alaska, If you guys vote Murkowski back into the senate I vote that we give your damn state to someone else. Who needs a bunch of P^^^ks near the artic circle. It is a beautiful place but if you vote her back in I am all for dumping the place.

So does a yes cloture vote imply a yes confirmation vote?

Three of four key Senators vote “yes” to advance Kavanaugh nomination.

The Senate holds the first floor vote on Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation to the Supreme Court this morning.

This comes just a day after both Republican and Democratic Senators reviewed the FBI report on Kavanaugh.
