Great idea. I think Graham is pointing out there may be a silver lining in this mess particularly in dumping the Senate Dems in Trump states ND, W Virginia, Missouri, Montana and Indiana. Make them go on record voting against Kavanaugh BEFORE the election so their Republican opponents can assure the electorate that if elected they will confirm Kavanaugh after the election

Kavanaugh is our Dreyfus affair; how a Jewish officer in the French army was railroaded by lies and deceit.

Obviously, the GOP’s internal polling is showing them killing this, at least at the moment.

That’s not going to stop the Destructocrats from manufacturing more garbage on Kavanaugh. By election day, they’ll have dug up things he did in first grade, and they’ll be making him out to be a serial killer.

IF the Senate rejects Kavanaugh, it will be because Republicans voted “no.” There is no way around that. Its not an issue of Dems vs Republicans. Its an internal GOP issue. If the Senate rejects Kavanaugh, the GOP leadership should remove the “no” votes from key committee positions and strip them of their rank. Let’s see if Lindsey supports that.

The Democrats seem to want to stall until after the election. Are they sure they want to?

It reminds me of the dilemma that football team A faces when it has a slim lead, near the end of the game, but where the team B is threatening. Does Team A allow the clock to run, or do they stop it? If they let the clock run, and Team B fails to score, it’s great. But if they let the clock run and Team B scores to take the lead, it’s bad.

This is exactly what I’ve been suggesting.

Either Flake, Collins and Murkowski (at least 2 of those 3 anyway) commit to voting for Kavanaugh when it comes up for the vote OR suspend the vote and leave it up to the people.

Of course there are a lot more Democrats up for election and in red states.....AND the Democrats probably don’t want this because it would motivate the Republican base to turn out in droves......

So we get Justice Kavanaugh within a week or we have a big campaign tool.

No!

The Democrats looked a gift horse in the mouth on this one. Kavanaugh was a moderate Bush choir boy intended to be confirmed easily. The Democrats trashed him anyway. If he makes it through confirmation more power to him. He has just got a lesson he will never forget about lefty treachery... moderate no more.

If he is not confirmed and the Senate picks up enough seats in the midterms to silence the RINOs Kavanaugh was intended to appeal to... a hard core conservative should be nominated. I am thinking Sarah Palin, or Amy Coney Barrett. The Dimwits have cried wolf once too often and no one will listen to their fevered protests a second time around. Screw them big time, they should have taken Kavanaugh, the compromise nominee. The same goes for when Ginsberg’s staff is no longer able to conceal her dementia. Replace her with a hard core conservative. Screw the Dimwits.

Senator Graham, nice that you’re late to the party, but America has already given its electoral approval for Judge Kavanagh with the 2016 presidential election…

End this ridiculous farce now! McConnell should censure Flake — the man (loose term) should recuse himself at least by voting present for confirmation..

If McConnell doesn’t allow a vote on Kavanaugh, it would be catastrophic. Even if the vote fails, GOP voters will be incentivized to vote.

I like that idea. In fact I have been dreaming it. We just need to break the 3-RINO gap and we can tell the Dims and Collins et all to jump in a lake, skip hearings, and vote Kavanaugh in.
