    Have you whined about PoliTalker's thread ban list? Of course not. You're a partisan hypocrite on steroids. STFU, seriously.

    This hypocrisy from a cretin who post-thread banned me when I was kicking her ass on her own thread. Moron.

    However, I don't expect that from Collins. I fully expect her to sell her soul to the GOP leadership, praying that by the time her next election rolls around the people of Maine will have forgotten and she can coast by on incumbency. I've pledged $50 to whoever her opponent is if she doesn't vote no.
    But you're okay with Democrats selling their souls to the DNC leadership right? STFU, seriously.

    Of course not; if they mattered to the Party of the Jackass you wouldn't see them shooting up their neighborhoods, robbing and killing one another. The GOP cares. But until the black community comprehends that becoming a ward of the State is not a good thing the killing will continue.

    O M G So this is it?

    Senator McCaskill has sealed her fate with her vote. Heitcamp already knows she's gone so she didn't give a shit about what her constituents thought. So there's TWO Senate seats that will turn RED.

    Manchin? The jury is still out. Might be another one in serious trouble.

    They'll be safer still once that hag Ginsberg kicks the bucket....I'm thinking she might have one year left.

    Now, the narrative shifts to having the most openly political conservative/Republican judge being confirmed to the Supreme Court, and the country tilting even further right.

    A month is a very long time in politics.

    Ultimately, if this vote holds through tomorrow, this confirmation process will go down as a win for rule of law/due process. It's a political win for Trump of course and fuel for the Democrats to keep opposing him with even more vigor, but balance of power aside it was really good to see that the court of public opinion doesn't completely have power over the presumption of innocence just yet.

    I agree w/ you. I don't want Kav on the court for other reasons, but there wasn't enough here for ANY kind of valid conclusion on what happened, and I hated to see the presumption of guilt based on partisan politics - something that is too common now.

    And on the other side, I hate to see the automatic presumption that Ford is a liar.

    This was a sad situation all the way around, and both parties deserve the benefit of the doubt.

    WE WIN.....YOU LOSE.

    Let the weeping and gnashing of teeth begin. I hear stores are already sold out of sackcloth and ashes.
