Do we need a collective strategy to keep the heat on Kavanaugh?

I would like to suggest one that may be be helpful.

Everywhere possible...letters to the editor, texts and emails to the Senate, and in all on line comments sections - we speak in one voice.

"Brett Kavanaugh's own words disqualify him for the Supreme Court.
Justices must have the temperament to be able to rule with impartiality.
Mr Kavanaugh cited the 2016 election, the Clinton's and the media in his belligerent rant.
But most revealing was his threat of reprisals for decades to come.
This man does not belong on the Supreme Court."

For some of us this is all so overwhelming that keeping it all organized for articulation is challenging at best.

and they LOSE when they win. This is rhetorical reply, but keep it in mind.
Posters, little made up letter size messages ("This guy wanna protect YOUR daughters!" for example under pic of Brattkav scowling at us) are easy to do, and can have real impact. I've postered b4, and immediately saw reactionarkys jump outta cars to tear the things down while cursing! they're great in newspaper boxes ... on poles by red light etc

btw the 'lose by win' idear is only long term ie the Righties who backed nazism thinking they rein Adolph in later on... he killed them
