‘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

The only decent thing she ever did was vote for Kavanaugh, other than that she has been a total loser
See my post #99. Mitt can be bought.
“I don’t believe the senate should vote on the nominee priority the election in fairness to the American people“
Thanks for handing the rats a sound bite for attack ads bitch.
This needs to happen in October. Sooner the better.
Actually, if you had half a brain, you'd realize that this will turn off a large number of Maine Republican voters, and it will probably cost her the election.
Beyond that, with the mail in Democrat voting scam, and a potential 4-4 tie in the SC, this could cost our country a lot more than having one less RINO senator in office.
The statement by Sen. Susan Collins is not a “no” vote against the nominee as the headline implies.
Collins confirms that Trump has the power to make a nomination and doesn’t object to the Judiciary Committee beginning work on the nominee.
Collins has some wiggle room in the second paragraph when she says she doesn’t believe the Senate “should vote on the nominee prior to the election” and that the decision “should be made by the President who is elected on November 3rd”.
Remember that Susan Collins took a lot of crap for her vote for Justice Kavanuagh earlier. She is in the midst of a big re-election battle in Maine, and her statement gives her some wiggle room depending on how many votes McConnell can muster for whoever Trump nominates.
Thats not a no, that a , we shouldn’t vote bit if forced I’ll do my job
That, and the fact that she seems willing to begin the process, it sounds to me like she’s trying to straddle the fence.
She may not be an absolute ‘no’ vote.
Why would anyone in Maine vote for the Democrat when they’ve already got someone who is an old fashioned democrat? Do they want another Bernie?
President Trump should offer her an Ambassadorship to Canada if she changes her mind. That post is currently filled by a career diplomat appointed by Obama who is acting ambassador to fill a vacancy.

If Susan Collins and Sarah Bernhard had an ugliest head contest, Collins would wind hands heads down.
First I trust no poll. Second I trust a Fox poll somewhat less than CNN or a private poll announced by Podesta.

Does anyone need to be reminded that Mitt Romney’s wife is going on campaign trips / appearances with Michelle Obama?
Romney will Vote No.
Yeah, that’s kind of how I’m reading it, too. She doesn’t want to do it, but she hasn’t totally slammed the door on it. At the very least, I think a ‘present’ vote may be in play.
I suspect it will be too late by then. The SC will probably need to make key election decisions before the election.
I’m just gonna say this once...it ain’t gonna happen!! We have nothing but spineless pos representatives!! The threats from the demonic left are already making an impact on our coward pubs! Really sad!
Bye Bye Bitch!
Are you sure she can refuse to vote? Like vote “Present”

Yes, Murkowski did it with Kavanaugh.
Exactly. She’s basically clueless on the issue.
There’s plenty of historic truth on our side here.
