Would he do this if he didn't think he has the votes to confirm? Would McConnell leave open the possibility of being defeated? I would guess not. That would be huge loss spirit-wise for the Republican base.

Great. He has a good bit of Trump's and Cruz's forcefulness in him all in his own way, and has shown it since the Kavanaugh atrocity. Exxcellent.

And he is absolutely right---the voters reinforced his hold after that fiasco regarding the Senate role.

Good. He's right. The country selected a Republican President and Senate for a full term. Not to abdicate responsibility due to an election.

I think it's a good idea to go through with the process even if we don't have the votes. The ****show that the Dems produce will end up making them look like even bigger clowns.

A good documentary posted in this forum over the weekend gives a good detailed look at how we got where we are regarding nominations.

Supreme Revenge

"Inside the no-holds-barred war for control of the Supreme Court. From Brett Kavanaugh to Robert Bork, an investigation of how a 30-year-old grievance transformed the court and turned confirmations into bitter, partisan conflicts."

Elections are when people find out what politicians stand for, and politicians find out what people will fall for.

Agree. It will damage them with pliable votes.

Obligatory. I hope this pic haunts Schumer and Pelosi in their nightmares.

That says it all, from "sanctity of abortion' Ted K and 1987 --the true year the big divide began. The one-sidedness of the press then and throughout Clinton's presidency to follow led to the enlargement of talk radio and the debut of FOX. All kind of begins with 1987 and `borking'.

That's the equivalent of helicoptering in front of all the Dems. Swing it, Mitch.

This a-hole deserves to be burning in hell right now for all the sh**he got away with in his life.

"Journos" are relentlessly and in the main pro-Democrat. Fortunately the bulk of the nation now knows this.

But seriously, what do they call the activism of the wicked witch of the West, Pelosi?

Its good to be in a two-side war instead of a one side one.

Is that real? It looks like an old ad, it doesn't look that recent. Could it really be so?

1970s satire advertisement in National Lampoon magazine. They caught a lot of heat for it.

So it was real, in that sense, before this century, and the age of just constant mis-directs. Satire, but real. Funny and interesting!

Yep. I think McConnell has been waiting for this since Kavanaugh. Watching the dems behave the way they did put Mitch over the edge.

I think he gets this done.
