‘Given the proximity of the Presidential election, however, I don’t believe the senate should vote on the nominee priority the election in fairness to the American people

[FreeReign]

given that she's in big trouble in a rabidly blue state.

I'm not sure I agree with your premise. In 2016, blue Hillary got only 47.8% of the vote in Maine.

To hold her ears apart?

[bramps]

Where does she specifically say that she will vote no?

[Verginius Rufus]

She is wise like Solomon, who proposed splitting the baby in two.

Mittens last night said that all reports about him doing so are not accurate.

Mitt might have some "conditions" to be satisfied before he would vote to confirm.

[M-cubed]

But if she had come out as a “yes”, then I think that would have fired up the Republicans to get out and vote for her.<<<<

BINGO!!!!!

nothing worse then a Traitor in your mix....Ill vote for her opponent now..

This is 2020.

She's not saying how she would vote - just saying that the Senate should not hold a vote prior to an election (FWIW - every day after Nov 3rd is prior to an election).

If McConnell holds a vote she will have to do something, even if it's abstaining.

Ms. Collins is effectively knifing President Trump in the back. The death of RBG, (thankfully out of pain) happened on President Trump's watch plus we have only eight, they need an odd number...

Justice Ginsberg's duties have been fulfilled by her clerks or someone other than herself which is why the Supreme Court Justices should be made to retire once they are no longer mentally or physically able, these people are not Kings or Queens. ...by filling the empty chair with a qualified person doesn't mean he/she will lean left or right a la John Roberts...a person who will follow the U.S. Constitution and those laws is what is needed and demanded apparently swearing to do so is not enough.

Check out their Governor. When you look up “rabid” you see her photo.

[inchworm]

She is a piece of crap.

[rdl6989]

Can’t we kick these RINOs out of the party?

[Erik Latranyi]

Collins would be a “no” vote if Trump got re-elected because Trump will nominate a pro-life justice and Collins is a single-issue Senator.

I hope Collins loses her seat.

[Dave911]

Traitorous bitch.

[rktman]

So, a new dem senator then?

[Diogenesis]

women from Maine should not be allowed to hold Office,
let alone vote, it seems.

[FreeReign]

Collins is from a liberal state...

Trump and the libertarian candidate got over 52% of the vote in Maine. Since, then the anti American, pro riots, anti libertarian Democrats have only gotten more unpopular.

[dixie1202]

Her re-election is going to be a NO as well.

[mainerforglobalwarming]

You’re right
