“Within striking distance of retaking the Senate.”
LOL.
Dems play a dangerous game:
1. President Trump nominates Judge Barrett (or some other worthy; there are a bunch).
2. Dems oppose; Murkowski and Collins go south; Dems stick together; McConnell can’t round up the votes, announces the nomination’s on hold until after the election.
3. Dem obstruction gooses Republican turnout.
4. Four (or 5, or 8. or 10) Dems in pro-Trump states go down to defeat.
5. McConnell waits to early January, Justice Barrett confirmed 56 - 44 by the Republican (58 seats) Senate.
Not sure what their panic is about. They already have mccain and collins in their pocket; they just need to offer more money to murkowski, and an MSNBC gig to Flake.
