She's CONCERNED, but she has Not said she would vote No.
It is her valued opinion, that any vote should be held off on, with the Election Winner getting to make the pick.
She DOES NOT say that if there is a vote, she'll vote No.
She knows she's going to lose anyways, and will do this for the party. Roe Vs Wade proponent MY ASS. She couldn't care less about it, and will gladly vote for whomever her Leader nominates.
Just watch....she'll probably use the fact it's a woman as her justification.

#SusanCollins do you commit to NOT VOTE for a Trump Lame Duck nominee BETWEEN NOVEMBER 3rd and JANUARY 20th 2022?
Well? I'll wait.

We all know she's a bullshitter who will fall in line at the last minute.
We need to go aggressively after other vulnerable senators.
Collins is like a sacrificial metal, added to take corrosive abuse and save the core product.

(89,244 posts)people are mostly posting things many said BEFORE she died . And things like Romney's statements which his own people denied.
I wish people would check dates and things also before posting.

(54,330 posts)She always does on major issues, and few issues are more major than this. She has no spine, no guts, no principles, no compassion, and nearly no chance of being a Senator on January 3rd. Why should she give a damn?
McTurtle can make the difference between her getting a cushy K Street lobbying job and being a tour guide in Bar Harbor next year.

(11,292 posts)(on the R side) I have no problem with people attempting arm-twisting and shaming. But people are spending way too much time reading tea leaves. To no real purpose. The only CERTAIN "no" vote -- is one that's been cast.

(38,958 posts)I suspect that they will all fall in line, some may take just a bit longer than others. If not before November 3rd then immediately after.
