Since democrats hacked Bork

“Our Supreme Court confirmation process has been in steady decline for more than thirty years,”
Rat in a Rino suit!
It was a great speech but she seemed to think Kavanaugh will leave Roe v. Wade alone....if that’s the case, many of us will be disappointed in Kavanaugh. I understand that abortion cases are headed to the SCOTUS as we speak.
You can say what you want about Susan Collins, but on this particular day, she played it brilliantly. With her announcement that she would take the floor and tell the world her decision at 3 PM, the left and their allies in the media were giddy with excitement and anticipation. They eagerly carried her entire speech live on nationwide television. They got played. They thought the entire nation would get to witness Judge Kavanaugh's hopes for confirmation come crashing down. Instead, Susan Collins meticulously took apart the arguments against Kavanaugh and made a persuasive case for his confirmation. Think about it: Do you think the media would have given her speech any coverage at all if they had strong reason to believe she was voting "yes?" I'll bet a number of network executives were kicking themselves afterwards.
She played hard to get, and got wooed and feted for it.
She gets no applause from me.
I don’t like her but she’s with us about half the time and that’s good enough to support in the NE. She voted for Kav, and Gorsuch, and Alito. She doesn’t deserve praise or scorn.
Presuming she runs again it’s very unlikely there will be a viable primary challenger.
