Nobody is talking about a conviction.

We're talking about a job interview, for the 1000th time.



So, you think false accusations should keep someone from getting a job? I disagree.


They're not proven false. They, along with everything else, point to a flawed character.

He should not have one of the most important lifelong appointments in the country.


Not as flawed as the setup by Feinstein and her cohort. I used to admire Feinstein.


Why'd she sit on the info for so long. That was pathetic.


Because she thought he would be disqualified by his disqualifying testimony. But Rs didn't care about that.

Thank God you people did not succeed at your witch hunt.
And, you are not succeeding at your latest attempt.
Hopefully, this latest effort will push Collins over the top because decent people don't tolerate your sick game.


The decent people of Maine don’t agree. Bye Susan. It’s the new Bye Felicia.

If you think she finger wags, have you watched Warren?

I truly hate her. I pray she loses her seat and leaves Maine.

She thought it was a brave thing, to stand as a woman, in defense of BK.

I think she made a grave error because the man she sincerely thought was all right, was not all right.



I don't think she thought it was brave. I think she thought it was politically expedient.

She is not a stupid person, and she cannot have believed that voting yes on BK was fulfilling her promise to Maine citizens that she wouldn't confirm a justice who wants to trash Roe. That's even leaving aside the rest of it. She must just have believed she was powerful enough to withstand blowback, and that the trouble of not voting for him would be worse for her.


We'll just have to agree to disagree. I really thought she was sincere. And, there have been a few votes on the SC where BK bucked the conservative trend, unlike Gorsuch. However, ultimately, given that I perceive BK to be an opportunistic and morally flexible chameleon, I think she was bamboozled and took an extraordinary risk. I won't miss her.

She might win. You lose all credibility if you declare that anything is certain.

Nothing is certain but I know many folks in Maine.

They would die in laughter reading this thread.

Maine just imported a horde of refugees to take care of its elderly thanks to Susan Collins. All the relieved sons and daughters of Maine will vote for Collins.

Maine has 1.3 million people. How many do you know?

She said she told her shrink. No evidence was provided to back this up.

The White House wouldn’t allow a full investigation, shouldn’t be surprised they didn’t do a full investigation. If you have a problem with that, I’m sure you can call the GOP and give’em hell.
