Only way confirmation will happen before election day is if the committee hearings are bypassed. Schumer’s invoking the “two hour rule” will drag out proceedings and keep the 4-4 split in SCOTUS to hear election challenges. Dems may end up losing on the seat, but both sides win on their desire to get rid of Trump. Hating Trump is the one item both agree on.
And as far as the threat of expanding the SCOTUS to 15 by the Dims, Trump should say.....”That’s a great idea, we can do that over the next three months.”
Turtle MUST schedule a vote ASAP...or he will slow walk until after the election so RINOs are free to vote ACB down.
Suddenly, both Romney and Murkowski want to toe the line?
This sounds like something I haven’t heard of in years: Republican Party discipline. A very good thing. Assuming President Trump is reelected, and the Republicans recapture both the senate and the house, if they can keep their discipline, the Trump pt. 2 administration can hit the ground running.
Trump made a phone call. Support us or ur toast.
The check cleared?
Skeletor is as vile as hirono and scummer. The pubs should kick her out of the party. They don’t need her friggen vote.
Mitch gave her that seat. He’s responsible for that garbage. This is the least he could do.
If Mitt has the courage to do something right it may inspire Murkowski to sort of, in a way, possibly do something right.
Maybe.
How do her constituents like her wishy washy squishiness?
Maybe just fine as our country degenerates by the day. They probably look up to Kasich.
Manchin is bullet proof. He can vote either way. Lisa M. could vote “present” and it would not hurt.
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.
....plus one Diet Coke!
The Kow is trying to entice Democrat $$$ to get her to flip.
The other day I was thinking that we should drag this out until after the election to show people how disgusting the Dems are. That would motivate our side more.
But, the more I see this play out, this may be just as good to vote right before. It will pump up our side with another victory, though it will also pump up the left in rage. But, likely in areas that don’t matter. Our folks will be pumped up in areas that do matter.
I presume McConnell knows what he is doing with the timing.
They have to quit scratching their backsides and get it for a vote sooner than end of October
Darn, looks like Mitch is in full-on Ninja Turtle mode.
In other words, after he announces his choice, she's going to pick HER choice, not the President's....even though her choice may be the same as his.
Velly clever, Murky.....I hope your constituents catch on to you....I hope you don't get invited to the President's Inaugural Ball.....and I hope you end up your Senate career by getting assigned to the virtually unknown Joint Library Committee in the upcoming Republican-controlled Senate.

When will her house be attacked?
She disagrees with the Process. If she felt that strongly about something that is going forward no matter what she thinks about it, she can simply Vote Present or choose to not Vote at all.
The Nominee has nothing to do with her position.
Of course, all the wailing from the DEMONcRATS is mute. All Mitch has to do is ask Chuck the Schmuck if he would not proceed with a Nominee if the Shoe was on the other Foot with a Rat in the White House and a Rat Majority Senate.
Chuck the Schmuck wouldn’t lie about that, would he? LOL
