I watched the whole speech. It was a great “speech”!

I think it may convince some more Democrats to vote yes.

I hope it doesn’t cause Republicans to vote no and I hope that Kavanaugh ISN’T who Collins thinks he is.

I’ve said this before.

The Kavanaugh hearings will be remembered as the 2018 version of the Paul Wellstone memorial.

All of the comments I've seen on "public", general forums have run somewhere between 85-15 and 90-10 in favor of Judge Kavanaugh.

If Dems had ANY sense they'd quit listening to themselves and what they think and start listening to the real American population. Otherwise, they'll find themselves so marginalized, all their cheating, pandering, and partisan reporting won't get them elected, no matter what they do.

Ask Hillary.

If you look at up and down votes, it’s clear that the left is not looking to watch Collins’ speech yet this morning. They’re probably all so depressed right now that the ones who actually survived yesterday’s developments are still drunk or massively hung over.

Despite my overall unfavorable view of Collins’ wishy-washy Republican past, in this instance she was superb. I do not know who wrote that speech, but it was historically significant. It was well organized and very focused on all the relevant issues. She did a good job delivering it too. There is nothing positive to be said about Manchin who hid behind Collins and then slunk out from behind her to announce his position. I hope the WV folks finally see the weasel for what he is.

I did not see vast numbers of anti Kavanaugh protesters at the Capital.

Just screaming, fist waving women and an occasional bewildered looking male.
But not what I consider well attended.

I’m troubled by Collins feeling that Kavanaugh basically guaranteed that he wouldn’t vote to overturn Roe.

Anyone have a take on what Kavanaugh actually said in this regard and how and why he would actually vote if given a chance to overturn Roe v Wade?

DiFi and her co-conspirators in this Goebbels Nazi Big Lie smear job against Judge Kavanaugh.....
have screwed the pooch, yes, politically speaking for the Nazi-Commie D party

really bad.

but they’re not done.
They will accuse Judge Kavanaugh of screwing his family’s pet poodle ...now, before the vote

plus, of course, the inevitable farm animals

The D’s are not done with their Nazi style smear campaign.

I share the concerns of some commentators that Judge Kavanaugh may not be adequately conservative, faithful to the constitution... as so desperately needed to repair some of the last court’s damage to the country

however, he is at least not a far leftist commie Nazi political whacko.....
and he is well qualified

all this Nazi style smear against him and his family is totally despicable, evil.................I will conclude by just noting that they’ve proven not a single germane fact indicating this nominee may not be qualified for the job. Not a single thing against him after 7 FBI investigations and all the muck and sheit throwing at him. Nothing negative, nada.

I give the grandstanding, slow-thinking woman ... who took 44 minutes to say the word “yes”... and who’s committee vote gave us Obamacare...an “F”. She is no heroine...she’s a RINO that needs to be replaced.

Like the Missouri Compromise which stripped away the veneer of delusion and exposed the hideous reality of slavery championed by the Democrat Party, the Democrats' behavior in the Kavanaugh confirmation process stripped away the veneer of delusion and exposed the hideous reality of violent, hate-filled evil still present deep in its dark heart.

It is worth noting that it was the Democrat Party that championed slavery in the 19th century, just as it was the Democrat Party that still suppurates with violent, hate-filled evil in the 21st century, and always has.

Nothing has changed but rhetoric of the veneer of delusion in this Evil Party of Hate and Violence since it was advocating slavery.

The grandiloquence of the veneer has changed a bit, but the EVIL in the hideous depths of the evil Democrat Party has never changed one whit.

When this farce began, who would have thought that Lindsey Graham and Susan Collins would emerge as the heroes in this story?
