Democratic Sen. Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota says “there are a lot of lawyers in America who can sit on the court” and Brett Kavanaugh isn’t the only person who can do the job.

Heitkamp said Friday she hasn’t decided whether to support Kavanaugh’s confirmation to the Supreme Court. But her remarks to the AP suggest she may vote no.

Heitkamp is facing a tough re-election this year in a Republican-leaning state. Her decision on Kavanaugh is being closely watched.

Flake is negotiating a retirement plan.

He is negotiating for something else and this is a bagaining chip.

The Dems want to move the FBI BS to the full floor.

So what is Flake going to do when the FBI says “NO” again? Not like asking them to investigate requires them to do anything. Can we just get on with the vote then?

So the Dems get a week to sow agitators around the Kavparty county. Wherein they will magically “be found” by Rod’s boys and interviewed? This sham is sickening.

According to a lot of polls, she is going to get beat whether she makes a grandiose gesture or not...

It never ceases to amaze me how people act when a few other folks manage to duel into their delusion that they are somehow special.
