Was the character assassination of Judge Bork the Left's last stand against SCOTUS nominees?

Possibly. Ever since his name became a verb, it’s been difficult for them.

It is a wonderful thing to see the left walk away from a group mental masturbation session without a “happy ending”.

Judge Bork.
Maybe we can collect some of the interest on that bill.

That doesn’t keep them from trying again and again........................

The Clarence Thomas hearings were the turning point, IMO.

Since the pubic hair on coke can testimony, it's been all down "Hill".

Nope - they were successful in their atrocity - they fully expect such tactics to still be viable.

The lefties are in a crunch. They want to come out shooting with all guns blazing on this nominee but are refraining from doing so, because they know the biggest one will actually be the following nominee.

Somehow they need to be encouraged to shoot their entire wad on this nominee. If they do that, the next one may be a cake walk for our side.

Congressional Review Act (CRA), whereby Congress can overturn recent regulations that cost $100 million, is an attack on civil rights

You know, there's a way this can be resolved, where the regulation COULD remain, for instance, with EPA regulations that have destroyed the ability of land owners to use their land. How about if Congress were to amend the law, stating that IF third parties wish for these regulations to stay in effect, all they need to do is pay the financial damages to the land owners, which technically the government that restricted the use, should have done in the first place.

If the land owner is "made whole" by these 3rd parties, then the regulation would be allowed to stand. I wonder how much the Sierra Club is willing to pay for the snail darter?

The best part of that law is that it's congress taking some of their power back (which they never should have ceded in the first place) from the bureaucrats!
