Looks like Murkowski is going to be a final no vote:

Sen. Murkowski says she believes Judge Kavanaugh "is a good man" but maybe “not the right man for" US Supreme Court “at this time.”

Since she voted no on the cloture vote, she’s virtually assured to vote no on the final vote.

If Collins is a final NO vote then it is all on Sen Manchin [D-WV]. He voted yes on cloture but we all know if Collins announces No at 3 pm EST then the whole Democratic machine will be on Manchin to walk the plank and vote NO vote.

Alaska’s state government needs to pass a sore-loser law so that Murkowski can be defeated in the primary (again) and can’t run as a write in the next time. We should have been rid of her.

Yes if Manchin (D-WV) follows the yes vote on cloture with a yes final vote. Then it is a 50-50 tie and Pence will cast the tie breaking vote.

If Mad Cow is a no and Collin and Flake are yes, Pence breaks the tie and she is irrevlent.

Mad Cow need to be political destroyed. Give the GOP Senate 5 plus more Senators and Mad Cow can be a Senator in name only with no poltical power

Manchin is a sure yes. He wants to be re-elected and he’s only reflecting his constituents’ views.

If Mancin votes yes especially if Collins votes no then Mancin might as well announce he is switching parties when he votes. He will be a pariah in the Democratic party.

I think Collins is a yes, but we’ll find out at 3. I think Manchin is a yes, and I think its likely a couple of Ds reverse and vote yes too.

“Sen. Murkowski says she believes Judge Kavanaugh “is a good man” but maybe “not the right man for” US Supreme Court “at this time.”

Hey Murky, you aren’t the right woman for the senate AT ANY TIME!

If Manchin votes for Judge Kavanaugh, he will be a pariah in the democrat caucus in the Senate. If Manchin casts the deciding vote against Judge Kavanaugh, he probably won’t be in the Senate anymore.

“MAD COW” is a name already reserved, taken and owned by one Rachel. ;)

The only way Manchin votes yes is if his vote doesn’t count as the 50th vote...he’s a lying weasel!!!!
