WASHINGTON, D.C. (NEWS CENTER Maine) Senator Susan Collins told reporters Friday that she would vote yes to move the final confirmation vote to the Senate floor Saturday. Collins will announce how she plans to vote on embattled U.S. Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh during a 3 p.m. Senate floor Speech.
Drama queen. Attention baby.
agree, she will have to have courage and prayers though, there are only 36% Republicans in her state. Stay positive
She’s up in 2020, a Presidential year. She can easily be defeated by a Conservative and must be if she votes no.
After Rush, in time for Hannity & Levin.
Drama queen. She’s up for reelection in 2020, come on Maine, get rid of her.
Oh Susanna, oh don’t you cry for me...
She is understanding what makes sense under the circumstances. Some accusations are so implausible that they actually stink. This affair hasn’t helped the “women’s movement” one iota, in fact it is has branded that woman as the girls who cried wolf. Better late than never.
If she votes no, she would be conceding to the Left that terrorizing her staff with the threat of rape is an effective tool to get her to bend.
term ends in 2020, so she will be running next year?
what worries me is that she wants a press conference in the first place..for what..she could have just tweeted it out..bad feeling about this I hate the fact we have to rely on these losers to pass anything
She is actually set up now in a position to vote yes with great fanfare. In fact, she could try to undo the damage this liar (Ford) has done to #metoo.
These folks know things we don’t regarding what may come out in the next week or two.
We’ll see.
So it’s 51-49 now. If she changes to a no vote it’s 50-50, she or other dems must be trying to get one more dem to change their vote. Pray yes!
She is toast either way.
Trying to set up a “legacy” coatailing off Margaret Chase Smith’s “Conscience” speech.

She will vote “no” and make Pence come down there to cast the deciding vote. This woman loves the attention and adoration of the media.
Starting to think Kav is not getting confirmed. What’s baffling is that we would have people in our OWN freaking party vote “no” AFTER it’s been proven beyond any doubt whatsoever that the whole “sex allegation” BS is nothing but a wild, fabricated fairy tale.
It’s one thing to hate Trump and want to “stick it to him”. It’s another thing to screw over 150+ million people just to make that point.
Duh. It has branded that movement. I wish we could edit things within a certain time of having posted them.
She has to be in the building with police protection before she says anything.
This woman has a history of playing hard-to-get but eventually voting on the Republican side. That’s my observation.
If we can retain Manchin AND Flake, it doesn’t matter how Collins will vote. Mike Pence can break the tie.
Tightropes are being walked in wild winds. It has taken a long time for the “women’s movement” to become ashamed of Dr. Ford.
