So Are the Female (R) Senators going to stand with a sex crime victim or their (R) buddies?

[Wellstone ruled]

1. Sure looking that way.

8. But if the SJC reconvenes to hear testimony would Kavanuagh risk lying to the FBI and congress?

He could simply withdraw from SCOUTUS nomination and remain in his current office.

2. All the R ladies are going to have to vote no on Kavanaugh

Or they look hypocritical

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

3. Collins and Murkowski will probably fold like cheap lawn chairs, as usual.

[Iliyah]

4. Their (R) buddies.

[dchill]

5. They will confirm Kavanaugh, and lose the Senate.

[empedocles]

9. If Republicon Senators feel endangerment/losing Senate seats, as you do dchill,

that starts to change the current political calculus, as soon as those Senators, et al, start to feel that threat.

6. Not so fast

The political volatility indices keep on accelerating greatly. Even Sunday is not over yet.

[Given the volatility before this victim coming out, I sort of regarded November 'head counts' as mostly play. The political veteran Feinstein has had this on her 'desk' for awhile. Granted the conventional 'wisdom'/pessimism is McConnell/trump will simply bull it through without difficulty. Politics, and trump volatility, may suggest its a lil too soon to certainly call ].

11. Graham, Flake step up,

and Sunday not over yet. Monday morning rw caucuses should be . . . fun.

[Freethinker65]

7. They will do what the GOP allows them to. Show some concern, but vote to confirm if needed.

If, say, Manchin is a yes vote, the GOP will allow one of the GOP women to vote no. Kavanaugh gets confirmed.

[Stuart G]

10. I wonder if any of the Female Rs have been assaulted? If so, that might make a difference.

[Bettie]

12. They are going to do what right wing women do

whatever the menfolk tell them to do.
