Kasich predicts good year for Democrats after Kavanaugh debacle

Picking up the pieces after a contentious nomination battle, the Senate’s majority leader said Sunday that the chamber won’t be irreparably damaged by the wrenching debate over sexual misconduct that has swirled around new Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

While Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said Kavanaugh’s confirmation was a shining moment for the GOP heading into next month’s pivotal elections, GOP Gov. John Kasich of Ohio predicted “a good year” for Democrats and said he wonders about “the soul of our country” in the long term after the tumultuous hearings.

McConnell, in two news show interviews, tried to distinguish between President Donald Trump’s nomination of Kavanaugh this year and his own decision not to have the GOP-run Senate consider President Barack Obama’s high court nominee, Merrick Garland, in 2016. McConnell called the current partisan divide a “low point,” but he blamed Democrats.

“The Senate’s not broken,” said McConnell. “We didn’t attack Merrick Garland’s background and try to destroy him.” He asserted that “we simply followed the tradition of America.”(continued)

“Whatever happened to this a-hole?”

I suspect the Kasich was was either “caught with a live hooker or a dead boy” as the old political adage goes.

"i thought it was a dead hooker or a live boy." You would be absolutely correct in a sane world. I am amazed that you caught the irony of my post. The Democratic Party is now the party of lies, perversions, and evil. They can no longer be tolerated and reasoned with as they no longer see traditional Americans as brothers and family to disagree and reason with. The Democratic Party is all-in for destroying America as it was founded so they must be destroyed.
