So is Feinstein. Or is that not allowed because she’s a woman?

Are you smoking something. Heitkamp has already announced that she is a NO.

Earlier today it had the vote at 49-48 with Murkowski, Collins and Manchin undecided. At some point in the last couple of hours, they updated it to move Flake from "yea" back into the undecided column.

Reporter got Grassley to give a whip count, after Hitkamp : he still has hope for one, and maybe two Dems. Which would be Manchin and who? Maybe Donnelly?

Plus he has not heard from 4 Rs. That’s Flake, Collins, Murkowski and... Sasse?

Donnelly already announced he is voting NO.



The only one from Democrats who is still on fence is Manchin - but I am betting he is a "NO". Today a protester confronted him about why he is voting yes on Kav and his response was "how do you know how I am voting?" Which is a good hint I think.

He probably just wanted to get the nutbag out of his face.

If HeitKamp is a NO what makes you think Manchin won't be?

I liked how he called out the media today.
He explained that he has had protesters in his office every day for the past 2 weeks. People FOR Kavanaugh’s confirmation and people AGAINST. The people FOR his nomination wanted to talk to the media. The media refused because they were only interested in speaking to people who were against Kavanaugh.

Media bias at its finest. And, on full display to the American people.

She was already done. Now she is really done.

A Yes vote might have let her keep her seat. She didn't vote politically.

She might be sunk anyway, but I think a "yes" vote would have sunk her faster than a "no" vote. Being unprincipled on top of being a Democrat is no way to win an election in North Dakota.

You do not sound like you are from North Dakota.

I'm not. Am I wrong?

Both parents from North Dakota and am in touch with my relatives there but don't visit as frequently as I did when I was younger. They take a person's name and reputation seriously there.

The women cousins I've talked to are appalled that anyone would try take a man's reputation down just on their word and no evidence. In their view, if before making the allegation Ford could not line up at least one person to say she told them about it at the time, she ruined her own reputation by bringing the allegation forward and sullying another's name.

Your relatives are correct.
-DP

agree. but in these partisan days the liberal Democrats raise up any accusers of anyone Conservative, so she looks like a hero to the full-time community activists.

Yep. I do wonder what would have happened if this was a Democratic presidential nominee and the accuser was a Republican. Total hypocrisy.

They ARE two different people you know.

I think Flake, Murkowski and Collins will all vote no together.

Betting odds favor your view. Price for a yes vote now 72 cents, up 10 cents today. Price for no 38 cents.

I’m so glad he called them out on their gross bias. Good for him. Can you imagine if the NYT or Post ran a story about all the people who feel Kavanaugh has been treated abominably? It will be a cold day in hell before they actually report both sides.

—Thursday: Senators read FBI report. My source tells me Flake is “still having issues.” What issues? I ask. “I honestly don’t know anymore. Have you ever seen Hamlet?”
