If their worst smear is “she’s a Catholic”, this could be entertaining.
Chicago Circuit Court Judge Amy Coney Barrett

Chicago? Oh hell to the NO NO NO. You don’t get anywhere in Chicago if you’re not some wacka doodle leftwinger on at least a few issues.
Every liberal minority former student will be lying about her under oath:
"...I heard her in the cafeteria..."
"...i heard her in the ladies room...."
There will be no end to it. We won't see another judicial confirmation for months.
They only brought in one black woman to lie about Clarence Thomas and nearly torpedoed his nomination. This time the hallways will be full of them.
DemonRats lie for a living; it's what they do.
“She’s obviously a woman. That’s good.”
Excellent and profound statement.
The Democrats are smearing everyone!
NWOSCOTUS.
The Democrats’ big issue is the abortion and legal-person-at-conception position. Feminism, women’s sexual liberation, the destruction of traditional family culture and fatherlessness have moved far away from that position over the past few decades.
That will draw some quieter criticism from most Republicans and their constituents, too. Abortions are very common among female university students—even Catholic ones (student health center stats in universities in Catholic communities in the 1980s). “We’ve come a long way, baby” (re. old TV advertisement using feminism as a hook).
There’s also Barrett’s written opinion on Catholic judges recusing themselves from death penalty cases.

His reasoning is kind of shallow.
Poor Schumer...Dems must be really p***** cuz if he hadn't filibustered Gorsuch, they'd still have the super majority card to play.
This has happened before IIRC re the CIA chief's controversial nomination. Even though she reluctantly agreed to go through the ordeal. Don't forget what the Senate and Joe Biden put Clarence Thomas through lo those many years ago. Racist Biden cut his senatorial teeth on Thomas. Just saying.
It's gotten a lot worse now and the new civil unrest is going to have a chilling effect on Trump nominees unless and until we see some pushback, which we haven't. Seriously. Am scheduled to work as a polling inspector for the Primary in August, and the General in November here in Florida, and thinking it's going to get pretty nasty at the voting booths.
I don’t understand why some of the geriatrics like Ginsburg are sticking in there. Anyone with half a brain could see there’s a very good chance that Trump will be re-elected - do they really hope to stick it out until 2024, and the hopes that a Democrat will be elected THEN who can pick their replacement? Ruth would be 91! Are their egos really THAT big?
The preemptive smear campaign says they’re scared sh**less of this woman. If they really thought they could sink her, they’d have waited until after her nomination to do so, so there would be time to nominate another judge before the midterms. If Schumer himself is already unloading now, it seems to me it’s a sign they don’t think they have enough ammo against her to stop her after the nomination.
“Politically it’s going to be hard for the Democrats to have much objection to her.”
WRONG! Democraps are genetically incapable of not objecting to anything proposed or said by Trump. Their psychotic rage prevents them from grasping the obvious, massive hypocrisy of their objections.
What a Barrett nomination would do is make it easy for conservatives to expose liberal duplicity and to laugh at them as their heads explode.
If the Dems spend another week screaming about her they’ll have a hard time cranking up the outrage all over again for Thapar or Kethledge.
The Dems hate Catholics and conservative women.
No kidding Larry.
Stay clear of Barrett. A law professor at Notre Dame, a very liberal college that even covered religious statues to please Obama. Little or no record of her decisions from the bench. Did she go to Haiti to adopt kids to enhance her resume’? What’s wrong with adopting poor suffering American kids? Where will she stand om affirmative action, immigration,death penalty, etc.? We all know where the Catholic Church stands.
I like Klayman a lot but I think he is being naïve on this point. The democrats will make up something to smear her. It’s absolutely guaranteed.
A good clue as to her worth can be judged by how much the Democrats try to smear her. She sounds like a good choice.
