BREAKING: We Have The Votes
Town Hall ^

Posted on 09/27/2018 8:22:46 PM PDT by TigerClaws

With the Senate Judiciary Committee holding a vote at 9:30 A.M. tomorrow, a Senate insider has told Townhall that Kavanaugh has the votes to make it out of committee and the votes to be confirmed on the floor for a seat on the U.S. Supreme Court. Sens. Flake (R-AZ), Collins (R-ME), Murkowski (R-AK), and Manchin (D-WV) are expected to vote in favor of Kavanaugh. All the Republicans are voting yes. Also, in the rumor mill, several Democrats may break ranks and back Kavanaugh. That’s the ball game, folks.

It was an intense and hellacious day at the Senate Judiciary Committee. Christine Blasey Ford, the woman accusing Judge Brett Kavanaugh of an attempted rape while at a high school party, told her story of her alleged sexual assault. It was intense. It was emotional. And it still lacked evidence, witnesses, and other corroborating details. It’s an unprovable allegation, which is what Democrats want; it allows them to delay and run out the clock on this nomination. The FBI investigation talking point has been beaten to death by Senate Democrats, another delay tactic that has been undercut by past remarks by none other than Joe Biden. When he chaired the committee during the Clarence Thomas confirmation hearings, Biden famously said that FBI reports are inconclusive and should not be relied on during sexual misconduct allegations.

Brett Kavanaugh testified later this afternoon, giving an emotional and fiery defense of his character and career after it had been under a sustained assault by the Left for over a week. Kavanaugh said that the allegations—all three of them—were false and have irreparably damaged his reputation and damaged his family life. He said this process had become a national disgrace, with Democrats replacing advise and consent with search and destroy. Kavanaugh needed to come out swinging. He needed to be tough. And he did just that.

Congratulations on radicalizing Kavanaugh Democrats. He will burn with a fury and hatred against you for the next 40 years when your garbage cases get brought before the Supreme Court.

You could have prevented this...

Lots of time between tomorrow and Monday or Tuesday, isn’t there? Real nail biting time. What do those anti-American bastards have cooking? I pray every “yes” vote Senator has a serious full-time security detail covering them and their families. The completely unhinged left is capable of anything at this juncture.

NOT done.

EXPECTING those four RINOs vote is a lot different from triumphantly shouting “WE HAVE THE VOTES”. Journalism is adrift.

Prayers up.

Kavanaugh was Kennedy’s hand-picked successor. Hopefully he’ll take up with Thomas and be a solid Constitutionalist.

“I’ll retire now if you will appoint Kavanaugh.”

Yes. He was an establishment moderate.

Still not enough for Democrats.

It also showed Never Trumpers or independents that it takes Trunp-style all out war and balls to defeat this Democrat party.

Even Lindsey Graham has re-grown a pair.

Yes, I know he was.

But things have now CHANGED!

He went to school with Gorsuch, Kennedy is gone, and hopefully Roberts leaves him alone!

I just hope all conservative, decent people make a beeline for the ballot box and pull the lever so hard it breaks. The Dems need to pay. This has gone too far...it approaches bloodshed. The media needs to pay dearly.
