ok, thanks. though I have to point out, as Muffet says down below, this is not a mainstream or unbiased source. when i google it, i continue to get nothing but conservative outlets, so i’m not sure what thousand sources you mean.

Can you link to some sources on this? I’ve read this a couple places this morning, but I can’t find any sources with a quick google search other than conservative. I’d like some more data before I believe that. 

Congrats on your consistency. It’s nice for you that you learned nothing from 2016 but you’re not bothered by that.

No worries. I’ve learned a lot about politics over the last couple years. :( It would have been nice if a couple of them joined in with her. 

Gah. 

Look. She’s from a red state. She, along with three other Dems, were in question on this. Her making this move puts more pressure on the other three red state Dems to jump off the fence, and if they once do that, then that puts ALL  the pressure on Collins and Murkowski, and this is the critical time to do that. If…

Nonsense. 

This attitude bugs the crap out of me. This is a great time for her to come out. It puts pressure on the other three dems that are in question and now is the time for them to swing to our side. That puts ALL  the pressure on Collins and Murkowski and now is the time, because thanks to Grassly and Graham and that…

Republicans were in the majority, which is how they were able to stop the Garland nomination. What exactly do you suggest Dems do at this point other than what they are doing? Also, you might just stop and think about the fact that Dems do not have any actual power at this point because WE did not get off our asses…

There was no “of course” about it. Four dems were in question over this. Manchin is always a question, Heitcamp is a question, and I think the third one is Donnelly. She was number four, but now she’s come out opposed it’s put pressure on the other three to do the same. If they all come out “no” it puts more pressure…

Well, it seems to me that your partner is confused about the difference between deciding to charge Kavanaugh vs promoting him to the SCOTUS. It’s one thing to say there’s not enough evidence or too much time has passed or whatever to charge him, it’s another thing to say that this allegation is irrelevant to his being…

Nope. It’s standard for the FBI to do a background investigation. This is new data, and the FBI investigating it would establish what facts are knowable that would either support or tend to weaken her story. That information should be considered by the Judicary Committe as part of ther deliberations as to if he’s…

Yeah, they would not be investigating if he should be charged or not, they would be investigating if there is evidence to support what she’s said, and then providing that report as part of the background check that the Judiciary committee is supposed to consider in deciding if he is qualified to be promoted to the…

superpowers of denial there. really impressive. 

Memorized is fine. It’s not like we’re going to forget, right?

You can never miss with Hooker. 

I don’t really understand what your partners point is, actually. Is he claiming that because Kavanaugh escaped prosucution for assault back then that he is clearly qualified to be elevated to SCOTUS? I don’t even get what he’s trying to say. 

We already have evidence that he’s lied under oath. They don’t care.
