It’s just odd. McConnell is the Belichick of politics and in this case there are plenty of viable free agents that know the system and can plug the hole. No need to deal with this drama.

@LukeRussert that would show weakness

@LukeRussert Nope. This would only encourage the politics of character assassination that democrats are practicing. No. This far and no further. Kavanaugh gets confirmed. Period.

@LukeRussert Because if we don’t stand up now this will never stop.

@LukeRussert Getting close the danger zone on a confirmation in the lame duck -- and Rs think their voters will abandon them at midterms if they lose this

@LukeRussert Talk like that young Skywalker will get your butt dragged back into the game.

@LukeRussert Is Amy Coney Barrett a sure-win to give @realDonaldTrump a pass if it comes to impeachment?

@LukeRussert Race and gender aside, Kavanaugh is the best there is. Period.

@LukeRussert Seriously???? You think this is not normal democrat behavior?? This is what they are no matter who they put up. If you disagree with them... you will be accused of sexual harassment. This ya how they operate now. 🤦🏽‍♂️

@LukeRussert Because if a political hit works once, they will do them on every single nominee, male or female.

@LukeRussert Because at this point it’s about saving a good man’s reputation and not letting the left get away with this nonsense anymore. If it works now they’ll know this is what they should do with every nominee.

@LukeRussert Obviously you don't have a spine. You're willing to smear an innocent person because it's easier for you vs. doing the right thing. Shameful of you.

@LukeRussert Why not just give the bully your lunch money? Then he won't hit you any more!

@LukeRussert Oh that’s right… Everything depends on race and gender. I forgot. #tcot

@LukeRussert You're an incredible lightweight compared to your father. Probably the dumbest comment on twitter this week vs stiff competition. Maybe you'll be unjustly smeared some day and abandoned by your team. Karma has a way of dealing with the stupid.

@LukeRussert Has she promised to rule in Trumps favor?

@LukeRussert Shut the fuck up Wesley.

@LukeRussert I’ve had the same question, Luke. Here’s the thing though. Barrett is more transparent about her views on things like Roe and she might not get through. Kavanaugh has been somewhat evasive. I think Kavanaugh is wanted on the Court by people that he owes favors.

@LukeRussert Not only did he not get the presumption of innocence his life is ruined if he doesn’t get this confirmation. Do you think Harvard is going to let him teach law there still? Even the simple joy of coaching his girls basketball would be in jeopardy.

@LukeRussert You are wrong.
