GOP Must Confirm Kavanaugh or Kiss Midterms Goodbye
Rushlimbaugh.com ^ | 24sep18 | Rush Limbaugh

Posted on 09/25/2018 2:49:29 AM PDT by vannrox

RUSH: So Chairman Grassley has a job to do here, because, if he gives Democrats enough time, they’ll produce a woman claiming to be Kavanaugh’s secret Russian wife who Trump paid to urinate on that bed in Moscow. If Grassley waits long enough, the Democrats will come up with the woman claiming to be Kavanaugh’s secret Russian wife. — he’s a bigamist, too, don’t you know — and Trump paid Kavanaugh’s second wife to hire a bunch of prostitutes to urinate on the bed Obama slept in while in Moscow.

If Grassley doesn’t get a handle on this and just do — and I’ll tell you something else, which everybody also knows. If the Republicans do not get this vote taken and have Kavanaugh confirmed, you can kiss the midterms goodbye. You can kiss goodbye holding the House and you can kiss goodbye holding the Senate. Because whatever the Democrats think of their base, the one thing I know that if you guys fold on this and cave and keep bending over backwards… You’ve done that enough. You’ve demonstrated that you don’t hate women.

You’ve demonstrated that you’re open minded. You’ve demonstrated that you’re gonna hear from her. You’re never gonna hear from her! She’s never gonna show up. She’s not telling a story that can be verified, Senator Grassley. She’s not gonna show up. If you guys don’t conduct this vote in defiance of all this and if Avenatti gets one foot in the door to a Senate committee to start telling his story, then you can kind of kiss good-bye Republican chances in the midterms in November. Because people are gonna logically say, “What good does it do?”

Simple answer - a SCOTUS appointment is for a lifetime. The mid-terms are for two years.

If you Senators can't get a guy like Brett Kavanaugh confirmed, you're doomed
This is simply a warm up for the democrats who are preparing for the next SC opening.

I believe someone on the SC is waiting until after the midterms to announce their exit (but they've already told the democrats)

The GOP is not playing, they ARE “dead”. I have never seen such a bag of do nothings in my 81 years.

Unless it's spun correctly

NOTHING is spun correctly by them. Also keep in mind that early voting starts in early October in some states. That's why they should've voted when they said they would. If I were campaigning against one of the 'pubs in jeopardy, at this point my argument would be that they're too weak and clueless to be in power.

Staying Home in Nov = voting for socialism!

Stay Home in Nov if you want Pelosi and Schumer in charge!

Stay Home in Nov if you want to tell President Trump, “You’re Fired” (impeached)

Stay Home if you don’t want to MAGA!

The left has been chiseling away at this country for decades. Did conservatives think it would be fixed in two years by electing a new president?

This entire line of reasoning assumes that the GOP WANTS to remain in the majority. I, for one, happen to think that they prefer the minority position from which they can lie their asses off about fiscal responsibility, repeal of Obamacare, stopping illegal immigration, etc., etc., etc.

The only upside of this whole mess is that its forcing RINO Senators, plus Manchin, McCaskill, et. al., to buy Maalox in 55 gallon drums.

Rush is ABSOLUTELY wrong on this.

People are fed up with the circus and hate from the demonrats. There will be a red wave.

The screwing around has shown the world what evil scum the demonrats are. The demonrats have overplayed their hand so will not be able to pull this again. This screwing around has shown a spotlight on the swamp and the lying msm.

Agree. That premise working requires stupid voters who will stay home. I’m not that stupid, is anyone here on this thread that stupid?

We are looking at a replay of Nixon ‘72.

As much as you might dislike him or his party, you really had no other choice in the voting booth because his opposition was bat-poop insane.

People are being frightened into one more nose-holding vote for the GOP.

“I think if Kavanaugh gets “spiked”, that they’ll be a huge wave of conservative outrage.’

Yes there will be, a huge red wave of anger at the spineless GOP.

I will still vote RED, but I wouldn’t want to wager on what the rest will do. I think Rush may very well be right.
