The Senate Judiciary Committee will vote on whether to favorably recommend Brett Kavanaugh's nomination to the Supreme Court as previously scheduled Friday morning, though top GOP senators did not know as of Thursday night whether enough key Republican votes had been convinced to confirm President Donald Trump's nominee.

Kavanaugh's supporters and critics are now closely watching a handful of key Republican senators as they decide whether to support the nominee, following a day-long, blockbuster hearing that featured both Kavanaugh and the woman who accused him of sexual assault.

The vote scheduled for Friday morning means undecided GOP members of the committee -- including Arizona Republican Sen. Jeff Flake -- have just hours to publicly choose a side in a deeply polarizing political fight.

They better see the light and vote to confirm Kavanaugh.

Especially after President Trump came out with continuing strong support.

It’s still not clear to me why the Democrats and especially the pro-abortion activists have been so determined to have a relatively young man with a lifetime appointment to SCOTUS be filled with utter and lasting contempt for them.

Regardless of the reason, their little scheme worked!

You’re right!

I heard that Chuck Schumer had sex with little boys 30 years ago, there should be an FBI investigation...

I think the dims have NO idea what they did in opening several Pandora boxes.

We have been given license to do so many things that they taught us. Only we will do it the legal way.

If they fail to report him out as recommended, I will move to - an undisclosed secure position with a clear field of fire!

The first floor vote will probably require 60. There are a couple days of automatic Dem delays built in, so if he doesn’t get 60, it will take a few days to get to the 50+ vote.

“I sent a donation to Senator Graham this afternoon.”

Good for you. I have been sending President Trump $100 a week starting a week ago and will continue up until election day. He can dole it out to who he sees fit.

If he makes it, I’m hoping and praying that he doesn’t forgive and forget. Payback... oh please let there be payback.

Any GOP Senator that does not vote to confirm shall be hounded until the day they die by their perfidy.
