Conservatives are already incensed as it is. Borking Kavanaugh would make them angry as hell. Poor analysis.
Sure, if we don’t get our way, we will just hand it all over to the Democrats. Delusional!
Staying home because you’re pissed at the GOP is understandable, but staying home ensures a Democrat takeover of one or both chambers of Congress. Excuse me if I put my principled conservatism aside and vote for a straight red slate of GOP candidates and incumbents, some of whom are RINO globalists. Sadly, in many cases this will be a “lesser of two evils” choice for many of us, but the thought of Plastic Face Pelosi as the Speaker of the House and Schmucky Schumer as the Majority Leader of the Senate is too gruesome to contemplate! The Democrats in charge would be MASA (Making America S**t Again)!
I believe Flake and Murkowski will vote no. If Manchin doesn’t flip, it’s over for Kavanaugh, the Republican House and Trump’s agenda for the next 2 years.
Senate Republicans had better by now recognize their jobs are on the line if Kavanaugh is not confirmed. Really pathetic to see so few speak up for Kavanaugh, leaving the only voices heard being the Democrats. They need to come out of their safe spaces and be heard.
Failure to confirm Kavanaugh would be seen by a substantial portion of the Republican base as a betrayal of the party’s promise to appoint strong, proven conservatives to the Supreme Court, and would certainly hurt turnout among those voters in November’s midterms,” said Michael Steel, a managing director at Hamilton Place Strategies

Wow. This is a level of stupid that rivals anything on the leftist campuses of academia.
Lets state the “logic” here plain and simple:
If there aren’t enough good Republicans in the Senate to confirm Kavanaugh, then I’m going to work to hand the Senate over to the democrats, who lied, cheated and assassinated the character of a good man.
Wow. Just f’ing wow. Please don’t bother posting any more outrageous sh*t from the left, because now we have so-called “conservatives” out-doing campus and media crybullies.
Failure to vote would cause a bigger problem. Senators, vote and shut up.
So the economy means nothing. It’s not even part of the equation. We’re going to let the communists take over our recovering economy just because we couldn’t muster enough senators to vote for a good man. Sure makes perfect sense to me. If you’re an utter f’ing moron. This is moron logic that rivals anything on The View.
i disagree - i think we’re bright enough to see and understand what happened Brett Kavanaugh and vote our hearts out anyway
Trump is a fighter and if Kavanaugh is rejected he will whip up voters all the more. When Senate is increased renominates Kavanaugh and done deal.
Punish RINO’s and Rats and not Trump.
Absolutely the anger unleashed by the Democrats repugnant behavior will just as quickly turn on the republicans if they fail to confirm Kavanaugh.
Actually I think Kavanaugh’s loss could bring a massive red wave!
Here’s the deal. If he fails to be appointed, there is a waiting list of just as if not more qualified people to be nominated next. Sure, there will be push back for the next nominee, but it may be harder to get it to stick.
“Republicans face loss of Congress if Kavanaugh nomination fails”
Disagree with the author. The Republican base is well aware of the nature of the enemy. Trump supporters will stampede to the polls to support pro Trumpers.Folks are pissed at the way the RAT scum has destroyed Judge Kavanaugh, enough is enough.
In the USA, white Conservatives consistently have the highest voter turn out.
But our advantage shrinks every year.
A majority of the people who die each year are white Republicans.
A majority of the new 18 year old voters are non-white, and they vote 80% Democrat.
Young white voters vote like their parents - 50% to 55% Republican - but a large share goes Third Party.
Since Trump got elected, we have 1.5 million new Naturalized citizens - they vote 80% Democrat.
Adult Hispanics and Asians vote about 65% Democrat. Blacks vote about 90% Democrat.
Bottom Line....
If the Democrats get their voters to polls, we will lose the House and the Senate.
If Republicans turn out in exceptionally high numbers, we can hold Congress, but just barely.
2020 will be the turning point. Win or lose, Trump will be the last Republican president, and the Senate majority will turn Democrat.
After the 2022 Congressional Redistricting, the House will be gone, too.
Political Epitaph for the Republican Party....
“30 Years of Massive Legal Immigration”
He is going to get confirmed. That is a given.
This is the democrats wishfully thinking out loud - that the republicans will fail to find their spine and skewer their voters’ enthusiasm.
If the nomination fails due to Flake/weak sisters, the base will understand that we were betrayed by a few creatures from the swamp of Hell, and I think that will fire folks up.
If we failed because other Republicans joined in, the Republicans would have Hell to pay. But I don’t see that happening.
