NEWS: Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) tells me in an intv he that doesn’t think the Judiciary Cmte should move ahead with its Thursday vote on Kavanaugh until they hear more from Christine Blasey Ford. “For me, we can’t vote until we hear more.”

[Lazamataz]

JUST IN: Senate Judiciary Committee vote on Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination will take place next Thursday as scheduled, despite last-minute accusation by left-wing activist

Excellent.

[Lazamataz]

Positivity

I was able to extract some, when jjotto schooled me that the Judiciary Committee was optional. I originally thought it was a dealbreaker.

[Lazamataz]

Can they be retrieved, somehow?

I've tried various options, none successful so far.

[Lazamataz]

Do not ignore Chairman Grassley’s influence. He’s built up a great deal of good will, but no one wants to be his enemy. There are options, such a reporting it to the floor without recommendation, where McConnell could hold a two hour hearing before the scheduled vote.

Thanks bro. You eased my concern a lot today.

Stop with the logic. All the MARYs here just want to have a meltdown.... like they did when Flake said there was an agreement on amnesty.... when it was only between about 6 senators.

[CottonBall]

And from high school, no less. They couldn’t find anybody to lie about something more contemporary?

Do you know HER? Any substance here?

[CottonBall]

McConnell has surprised us with a spine before. Maybe he will still use one.

[McGruff]

Sensational headline. Did you make it yourself?

[Chickensoup]

Nice to hear from you Ms Waters.

I was uneducated when I wrote the headline. jjotto schooled me.

I thought that a No vote in Judiciary killed the confirmation vote; I was wrong.

[ExTexasRedhead]

I can smell the stench already.

About the only arena in which I can concede that McConnell has been superb, is in Judge appointments. In that, he's been great. Hoping he continues that trend here.

[Conserv]

Well... at least you finally calmed down.

[ncalburt]

I read on the conservative treehouse comments
involving the Prof student evaluations.
I think someone called her crazy and dangerous.
You want to search that angle..

[ncalburt]

Great question .
She was a teacher so her students may have dirt on her .

[Thumper1960]

AND swallows!

[Jim Noble]

It is irrelevant what happens to Kavanaugh.

If the high school grabass standard is accepted by the Republicans (and it does not matter whether the “charges” are “true” - what normal man could ever prove they were “false”?) - if they accept this as a standard, they might as well all resign in disgrace.

[ncalburt]

Great point

[SoFloFreeper]

Have the Turtle bypass committee and bring the nominee to the floor for a vote. Period.
