All they have to do to defeat a nominee is get the weak-in-the-knees moderates to come out against.

This is their media campaign.

The 2nd Circuit currently has 6 democrat appointees and 5 republican appointees, with two vacancies.

The leftist will go all out to protect this New York circuit, and if this guy gets confirmed, then it will be 6-6, and then one more nominee and the Circuit is flipped republican.

It’s still frustrating, a year later, to think about how the Democrats handled the Kavanaugh nomination. Was that a shot across the bow, to let all future judicial nominees know, that they are not above making up false accusations, and not caring what any of that does to the nominee or his family? Will the experience of Kavanaugh, cause some good people to decline to be nominated for judgeships, or any other high positions?

The last thing the Dems want on the influential court is a conservative of Jewish descent. Even if he clerked for RBG.

Has she weighed in on him? I suppose she should be above all of this, but we know she isn’t.

Huh? Name one court that is republican. They are all leftist, no matter how many republicans there are.

The attack on Kavanaugh didn’t work simply because we knew they would do it. We expected it, so when it came no one believed it.

That’s a problem they have now. We fully expect them to lie, and trot out false witnesses. So nothing they do is believable.
