Apparently they don’t have the votes yest, that’s why they are stalling.
“Two Republicans — Sens. Susan Collins of Maine and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska — and two Democrats in red states — Sens. Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota — now essentially hold the future of Kavanaugh’s nomination in their hands. A third undecided Democrat, Sen. Joe Donnelly of Indiana, announced his opposition to Kavanaugh late Friday morning. Donnelly was one of three Democratic senators who voted for Trump’s first Supreme Court nominee Neil Gorsuch. “

Manchin is a yes or he’s done in WV.
I think Collins will ultimately be a yes as well.
The holdouts have realized they can get some graft out of this.
Your public servants at work.
Hatch doing a facepalm. Not good optics. At least put on a poker face.
