Plus, if they don’t know the sex, if might catch them wrongfooted on their manufactured accuser. Don’t reveal anything till the last second.

That sounds like BS. I think they feared for the their balls after the “year of the woman” election. When you see that Breyer got more no votes, dude who is in fact the most moderate rat appointed in decades, that’s the only explanation. “Don’t want to vote against a Jewish woman who’s gonna win anyway, looks bad”.

Hard to accuse A Barrett of racism as two of her 7 children are Haitian adoptees.

Barrett has the two children who are black and the other front runner is Barbara Lagoa who is the daughter of Cuban refugees who fled Castro. That should counter the inevitable racism screed of the democrats. The other obvious guaranteed democratic plays are the screams of misogyny, sexual harassment, and rape. That's pretty much taken off the table too by both of them being women.

We'd all like to just have the most qualified person nominated but that's not realistic. This is an extremely political process and we all saw with Kavanaugh what will happen when you nominate someone based solely upon their qualifications. Having a Y chromosome and caucasian skin guarantees you're going to be targeted and slandered.

“They already had a woman ready to swear that she was molested by whomever the male pick would have been.”

Not a problem for the dims. That same woman can swear that she was molested by the same female candidate for the USSC.

Problem solved! ;-)

Others have been through Senate confirmation too. Lagoa, for example, got 80 votes. Also Barrett might be more Scalia-style talk than action and her reviewable judicial record is much shorter than Lagoa who was on FL Supreme Court.

She joined an opinion that supported BLM protests over other political expression in an Illinois case: Court rejects Illinois GOP's challenge to governor's lockdown order

Perhaps it's a political calculation but would you prefer he NOT say he's considering women to replace RBG? Why give the press & Left a chance to attack him by running with the narrative he'll appoint another "frat boy" like Brett?

Trump is right to control what he can control about himself in the talking head news cycle.
