Collins is a slow reader.

Realize all the troubles are coming from the last three States we added.

Arizona - Flake
Alaska - Murkowski
Hawaii - Hirono

Maybe we should have just stopped at 47.

Too many idiots in Alaska wrote her in to elect her. Granted, her opponent was an embarrassing incompetent attorney but still...

Murkowski is the worst.

...

She’s an extremely ugly person, and I’m not talking about her physical appearance.

McConnell needs to keep his powder dry until January, imo.

McConnell can gavel the Senate out of session and let Trump work his will with recess appointments. That threat will make their blood run cold.

Is she on any committees? On Hannity on Wednesday night, a guest suggested that all “pork” to Alaska should be cut off as a result of Murkowski’s anticipated no vote. Hannity disagreed with punished the citizens of Alaska for that, but SHE is their representative. They keep voting her back into Congress, so why shouldn’t the also be responsible for what she does. She, after all, represents them.

Thirty plus yrs. The pubs and Alaska have been trying to get Anwar opened. Trump gets it handled, and what does Murkowski do, she spits in his face. Alaska should toss her as quick as possible

Fox is reporting that Collins is having a presser at 3pm to say how she is voting tomorrow.

...

Hopefully it’s to calm the crazies in her base about why she’s voting yes.

Sean is an even worse political strategist than he is an interviewer. Voters need to be made to suffer the consequences of their bad choices.

You’re not kidding. She’s an 85 year old feminazi thug. That picture speaks volumes on the intimidation front. We should make it go viral. I already posted it to FB.

Despite the fact that Feinstein may end up with masses of legal trouble due to this affair.

Can’t Grassley pull Murk into his chambers and explain to her what it would be like to attach herself to this relic that may well end up impeached.

Why would Collins be having a presser at 3pm to say how she is voting tomorrow unless her vote is no?

That’s not why she won, do you not know how she got her seat?

I’m of the opinion that Manchin is in on this too and it is a gang of 4.

Outside possibility that they have rigged this so that either Collins or Flake (probably Collins) votes no and Manchin votes yes to get 50 - 50 split and confirmation.

That way Collins gets cover from the left wing crazies, Manchin gets re-elected, and Kavanaugh gets confirmed.

Chuckie might even be in on it as it would give him 1 more Senator in a long shot chance to take back the Senate in the midterms.

She and others are simply selling their vote. In private I bet they are negotiating pork and all for themselves (committee assignments, etc.). What will it cost to keep or get their votes?

That’s absolutely why she wins. Alaskans were willing to spell out “Murkowski” on write-in ballots in order to keep the pork flowing.

Yes, they need to recess and let him act. Stop the stupid and contrived in session game.
