IMHP, Feinstein ( up next) is the one to watch..she won';t vote for him..but if she throws i the towel ..ghoes easy on the questions..like Biden..then it means the Dems have decided NOT to even try to mount a filabuster..
I think even if she runs hard at him, the DEMs are resigned to the up or down vote. I don't blame them for holding fire on the filibuster rhetoric until the hearings are somewhat underway. After all, they reason, the nominee may very well step on his crank.
