If the Democrats have the majority in the US Senate right now,

Would Chuck Schumer have denied Kavanaugh a hearing and a up or down vote by the full Senate like The Turtle did to Garland or Would Kavanaugh gotten a hearing and a full Senate up or down vote?
When Lindsey Graham stated yesterday at the hearing that he voted to confirm Kagan and Sotomayor, A Democratic US Senator at the hearing should have asked Graham if he voted to confirm Garland.

Anyway, Graham says today Dems are telling him to shut up.

Not this Dem. Keep blathering, Lindsey.
Love it when you get the vapors.
