1. What does she mean by that?

She won't vote at all or she'll vote NO?

[elleng]

5. 'I won't vote'

12. If she just abstains, he wins

49-49 and Pence.

15. Depends upon what Collins does.

Collins has indicated that she also wants to hear from Mrs. Ford. If she abstains, he loses if no Dems crossover, but Collins and Murkowski would give Dems cover to vote no because the vote was rushed without full investigation.

21. Who else is sitting it out?

49 ds.. 51 rs.

[SCantiGOP]

22. I didn't know Kyl had been seated yet

I was wrong, it is back to 51-49.

23. Ah

Yeah.. they knew all this was coming. They made sure to get him sworn in in time to rubber stamp the rapist failure.

4. We shall see

6. They don't need her vote if ding dong Collins votes

Pence can just break the tie.

[Hekate]

8. Collins & staff are receiving abusive emails, phone calls from Repub trolls threatening bodily harm

...including of a sexual nature.

I wonder how persuasive those idiots think that's going to be, in terms of keeping her in line with the GOP?

7. Did she tell that to Grassley?

It doesn't seem like he respects any "pushback from the moderates." They're all full of shit.

[Ilsa]

9. Have Heitkamp and Manchin agreed to vote with their party?

The other night, their votes looked "iffy."

16. This is excellent if it holds true.

Trying to get Republicans to behave like reasonable human beings is like pulling fucking teeth! Now we just need one more--one more Republican to be decent and understanding. Not heroic, not super-human, just decent. Amazing how difficult that is.
