Kavanaugh is short of votes, but fate hinges on upcoming testimony [Urp]
Fox News ^ | September 25, 2018 | Chad Pergram

When it comes to the nomination of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, remember one thing: The math is the math is the math. Nothing else matters...Ten GOPers remain undecided. They are Sens. Bill Cassidy, R-La.; Susan Collins, R-Maine; Bob Corker, R-Tenn.; Mike Enzi, R-Wyo.; Jeff Flake, R-Ariz.; John Kennedy, R-La.; James Lankford, R-Okla.; Jerry Moran, R-Kan.; Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska; and Ben Sasse, R-Neb...Know this: a nominee on the verge of sailing to confirmation doesn’t appear on national television with his wife to make his case.

The Meme/Quote I posted a few posts back comes from Matt Bracken's Alex Jones Inforwars interview.

Even if you are not a fan of Alex Jones, this interview is well worth listening to. Alex gives Matt the floor, and Matt explains not only why the Kavanaugh nomination is so important to the left, but what they are likely to do if they feel they are losing it.

Anyone who is familiar with Matt's books knows he has an eerie ability to foresee what is likely to come next.

False flag on Thursday?

They better confirm him.

He is clearly innocent.

There is no proof, no corroborating evidence. The accuser doesn’t know where, when, and whatever she thinks it was, it was a long time ago.

Someone, Collins I think, said there were 7 undecided as of last night.

I disagree. All the Republicans needed to do, and continue to need to do, is the right thing for the United States of America. Always was that way and always will be.

So why is no Rep, except the President, saying this is all a con job? Why are there 8 to 10 Reps stating publicly that they still do not know if they will vote to confirm Kavanaugh or not and that they will wait until they hear Ford and others?

The Reps are scared to death of the #MeToo movement.

You know, I’d say I was undecided too, just because.

I would not be wanting to give the MSM ammo with which to try to swing the vote or elections.

“how do you draw the conclusion that: ‘...his career is pretty much over.’?”

Are you kidding? Because, based on the “information” during these hearings, they’ll be chomping at the bit to impeach him from his current position. That would just be the icing on the cake for them. That’s how I draw the conclusion. They never will stop until he and his family are beyond destroyed. It’s what they do.

I thought that the law firm that hired GPS Fusion was Perkins Coie.

Here is Scott Adam’s assessment of the Kavanaugh interview. It was interesting to hear his opinion:

Rush just said this exact same thing. Kavanaugh won’t have ANY job on a court if things break bad on Thursday.

“The Reps are scared to death of the #MeToo movement.”

I think you sort of answered your own question.

This is what I mean by the Republicans only need to do the right thing - they all should say damn the torpedoes (#metoo) and get Mr. Kavanaugh over the finish line.

Also, there are tens of millions of us as opposed to tens of thousands of ‘them’. Doing the right thing for the USA means a secure seat as far as the eye can see.

But the cats are too accustomed to cowering in fear and easily intimidated.

Interesting analysis. Says what others are saying, if he came across as somewhat angry and aggressive, it would do him no good as it would just reinforce the RAT narrative that he's just a typical male who treats women bad in sexual situations.

But I still would like to see him more assertive on Thursday.

This has destroyed the Demons with the Independents. They blundered into a win.

I believe I heard Collins say yesterday that there were 7 votes up in the air.
