[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kavanaugh will sail through.  Sure we'll here lots of this and that, but it's a done deal.  Collins, Murkowski, Manchin, etc will all confirm.  Plus, he's actually a great pick.  I dare anyone to come up with a plausible argument on why he should not be confirmed.

He's a standard-issue conservative pick.  Under normal circumstances, I would agree that the minority should just step aside and let the nomination go through.

These are not normal circumstances, though - the Republican Party destroyed any hope for normality in Supreme Court confirmations with Merrick Garland.[/quote]

Yes, #resist we must. 
What exactly do you think the Dems should do?  What actions can they take to prevent his appointment?  [/quote]

Democrats can do NOTHING to prevent Kavanaugh's confirmation absent some real surprise which is unlikely especially given that he went through the confirmation process not so long ago.

What Democrats can do longer term when it comes to future confirmations is to actually win elections and to do that they need to focus on the entire country - not just what will sell in CA and NY.

No party can lose elections at just about every level and then expect to call the shots when it comes to judicial appointments.[/quote]
