No, but I understand Politics and I understand the media... and know that what a headline claims and what is actually said are NOT the same thing.

Flake was never on the fence... not once, find me one quote where he said he intended not to vote for Kavanaugh.... You can’t because they don’t exist.

The Dems threw this allegation out there and Flake said she should have a chance to testify, that’s it... but it was spun and presented as he’s wobbling when in fact he was simply stating the reality, let her testify... that’s not I’m going to vote against the judge...

Same thing with Murkowski and Collins... they have never once said or done ANYTHING that implies they intend not to vote for Kavanaugh...

Stop buying into headlines and flappy lipped talking heads, and actually look and read, if you can find it, what is ACTUALLY SAID... not what someone claims was said, or a headline blares was said... find the actual quote....

Unlike the Health Care vote, where you had petty personal vendettas in play, this is a supreme court justice confirmation. Voting down Kavanaugh is not a slap to Trump... he just nominates someone else... it doesn’t hurt him in any major way, but it will harm the Republican Party big time and the court and the nation, if we are to say anyone ever accused of inappropriate behavior as a child is unfit to serve.. on that basis alone...

And that’s the argument that the left is trying to put forward, and its not going to sell...

Realize you are sold drama to make money off you... you need to watch, read, tune in for them to get paid... so everything is sold as more drama than it really is, particularly in politics... Do you think McConnell doesn’t have the votes?

If so, show me how you believe that, what action, statement or otherwise, has the Republican Senate leader given to believe that he is not confident of the outcome?

Stop buying the window dressing...

All true but if Kavenaugh fell apart you could lose Collins and maybe others for political reasons. We’ll see.
