She's dead to me, too. I have no respect for her. She thought she could score political points on the back of Al Franken. Gillibrand can drop dead right now as far as I'm concerned. She isn't half the force that Al Franken was. And we really needed to keep him. Al would have eviscerated Schlitz Kavanaugh and we might not have him on the SCOTUS right now if it weren't for her throwing him under the bus before he even got a chance to defend himself.

Ask yourself if that was worth what Kavanaugh is going to put this country through for his tenure on the bench.
