Are there 3 or 4 Republican Senators to vote No on Barrett? To Save ACA?

[Stuart G]

Just to save Affordable Care Act?...Do 3 or 4 care more about saving lives than saving Trump?

I wonder? Trump will be gone soon, so what the hell? Romney?

Anyone else care more about saving thousands of lives than saving Trump's nominee? What do you think?
Anyone else? Collins... I don't think so..

..but anyone else?

...Thousands of lives, tens of thousands of family incomes vs a Trump nominee?

[Wounded Bear]

1. Wishful thinking...

Would be nice, but I doubt it.

[Stuart G]

3. Yes, wishful thinking but there is that lady in Alaska?

...that would make two?...I don't think she gives a s**t about Trump?

[Jose Garcia]

14. Murkowski and Collins are probably the only two Republicans who will vote no

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

23. Collins already said she is voting no on her

Probably because they got enough votes already and don't need her. She thinks it will give her some points in her race... make her look independent minded. If they really needed her, she'd vote with the Republicans.

[LakeArenal]

25. Wishful thinking is not harmful. So why not.

Some call wishful thinking “visualizing goals”.

[bullimiami]

2. is there one?

[madaboutharry]

4. They don't care.

It is all about the power.

[GusFring]

5. Sadly the only hope was that covid would handle a handful of them, but

they seem to be immune or something

[BlueTsunami2018]

6. I don't see it.

This is the holy grail they’ve been after for fifty years. I can’t see them giving it up in such an uncertain election season. The court is more important than the Presidency or any of their individual seats. They can always win those back again. They’ll never have a better chance than they do right now to ruin every progressive move since the new deal. They’re going to push her through.

[Doremus]

7. I think they're all in Putin's pocket, either willingly or otherwise. nt

[TwilightZone]

8. Nope.

I'm not sure there's even one other than Romney that even wants to save it. Murkowski?

[beachbumbob]

9. Like the pandemic, this is once in 100 yrs to have 6-3 court

And it's going to happen. 2016 outcome made it all possible.

[grumpyduck]

10. Bunch of spineless fucking cowards.

Hey, Susan, maybe your time is up? We're very concerned about it.

[jpljr77]

11. No. She'll be seated before Nov. 3.

[PRETZEL]

12. Wasn't Collins and Murkowski

on record as saying they wouldn't support the nomination?

Aside from them, I don't see 2 more. One wouldn't do it since Pence would be the tie breker.

[Beaverhausen]

13. I thought Collins and Murkowski said they were going to vote NO

[lapfog_1]

15. the only hope was

Murkowski, Collins, and Romney.

and when Romney said that he would support Barrett...

that was the end. I expect a straight party line vote... with possibly 1 or two Dems jumping the fence and voting away most of the progress of the last 50 years.

[Stuart G]

20. Anything is possible...yes, I know it is a long shot..as long shots go...

in 2006..if someone said that Obama would become President of the United States, did you think that was possible?...In 2014 if someone said Trump would also hold that office, would you have said that ispossible?.....Let me say it again....Yes, unlikely..........

.....but anything is possible

,,,,,ain't it ?????????????????

[LakeArenal]

16. We didn't know McCain was going to be a hero until he voted.

So maybe onewill step up now.

Political theater at its finest might have one of them make the fourth.

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

24. Thinking it would be another Republican that is currently up for re-election

in a tight race... if anyone.

[bdtrppr6]

17. ummmm, no n/t

[njhoneybadger]

18. Cut the comedy

[Statistical]

19. No. It will be 53-47 or 52-48.

Merkowski "might" and if she does there is a good chance that will be offset by Mnuchin.

53-47. If Mnuchin remembers which party he belongs to then 52-48. You would need 3 more. That isn't happening. Everyone else will be by the party.

[KatyMan]

21. That's based on an invalid assumption:

That any Republican has any sense of morals or common good. They don't, and they continue to prove it.
I sure hope if/when Joe wins he doesn't keep up that 'reach across the aisle' stuff he talks about while campaigning. We need to govern like they do.

[Demsrule86]

22. No, but if we vote in Joe and win the Senate...we can save health care.
