At what point does Kavanaugh and his family tire of being falsibly dragged through the mud? That’s a concern.
Also getting the confirmation out of the way will deflate the Dems bubble. You can only keep people impassioned for so long on one thing before they move on to the next thing.
If he’s confirmed promptly, I doubt Dems can ride the inflamed masses all the way to the election.
IMHO
Kavanaugh already said he’s not withdrawing.
That's not true at all. A year after Thomas was confirmed in 1991, the Democrats had their infamous "year of the woman" elections in 1992. A disproportionate number of women ran successfully for the House and Senate that year.
