Why Aren't We Hearing From Other Repug Senators About Kavanaugh.....

The MSM keeps talking about Collins, Murkowski and Flake with regards to the Kavanaugh vote. I can understand this because these are the Repug Senators that have expressed some indecision on voting for Kavanaugh's confirmation.

I'm wondering about all the rest of the Repug Senators (not on the Judiciary Committee) whom we haven't heard from.

Since Ford's testimony and Kavanaugh's response to Ford's allegations where he lied to the committee I'm wondering if any other Repug Senators have now had some second thoughts about voting for his confirmation?

Don't you think that they should be questioned about their vote given that Kavanaugh seemingly perjured himself; talked of partisan conspiracy theories and displayed temperament unbecoming of a judge - particularly a SCOTUS judge?

I'm wondering how these other Repug Senators can still justify voting for Kavanaugh's confirmation in light of his latest failings and I'd like to see them be held on the record with their comments on Kavanaugh now that he showed his true colors?
