Manchin is bullet proof. He can vote either way. Lisa M. could vote “present” and it would not hurt.

“...But the problem is that republicans are scarce in Maine.Almost as scarce as in the Gay State (Massachusetts). Just look at the filthy whore they have as Governor for starters. The President doesn’t have a prayer of carrying Maine. He might carry one of their Congressional districts but he’ll lose the other one 75-20.
Just sayin’...”

Well, we just spent the summer there in the 2nd Congressional District. I know signs are antidotal, but even the lobster boats in Eastport harbor were flying Trump/Pence flags from their masts. There were more Trump signs, then “Lobster For Sale” signs, and then a few Biden signs. The 1st Congressional District is a different story. It has been flooded by Massholes, NYers etc. and will vote for Biden just like they did for the PIAPS. But Trump may very well carry the 2nd District...just like the last time. Fingers crossed that he does. Every one of em counts.

“Manchin only votes yes if it doesn’t matter.”

Yep. He ran his campaign in 2018 perfectly. I hope WVa doesn’t make the same mistake in 2024.

As for Murkowski ... AK has got to get rid of this fake liar. She’s a textbook definition of swamp creature. She even has the face for it!

“I’m predicting at least 5 dems will join republicans to vote for ACB”

Never. Schumer would *never* let that happen. Hell, Pelosi and Soros would *never* let that happen!

If Murkowski is altering her view, I assure you it is with Collins blessing. Collins is just playing “the Fox” as usual.

That picture reminds me of that crazy lady in “Throw Momma From the Train” talking to Predator.

Trump called her??...don't think so.

It finally dawned on her that President Trump is already the President...and who is voted President on November 3rd is irrelevant.

I don’t know I find her new statement odd. Why make your original statement then now change your wording of it? I don’t trust her or many politicians.

So she waited until her vote didn’t matter to act like a Republican.

Congressman Steve Cohen is going to be so upset, that he’ll be ordering three buckets of KFC Original Recipe Chicken.

That picture says a thousand words.

Feinstein looks like a complete psychopath, and Murkowski looks like she’s saying “Please don’t hit me again...”

Collins is the lone holdout.

For a thin old woman Feinstein has a huge skull, all out of proportion to the rest of her.

Dems sure have a crap load of carnival geek show folk.

So did Murkowski’s constituents change her mind or did she get visited by the Turtle who made her an offer she could not refuse?

Both

I think Collins will end up voting for it, especially if her vote is needed. She’s a pragmatist; always willing to compromise if she ultimately gets what she wants.

Definitely not a team player, but someone who can be reasoned with for the right price.

That picture is a study in human dynamics... one bullying and intimidating, and the other bullied and intimidated - and probably peeing herself as well.

The arm on the wall, blocking any chance of moving away as Feinswine invades Murk’s sonal space.

... and Murk just cringing, says it all.

I believe the infuriating Collins said she’s a NO on considering this nomination before the election, not that she’s a NO on the nominee.

The Kow is trying to entice Democrat $$$ to get her to flip.
