My latest theory

I scoured Fox news and saw nothing about this but hondo will call it a talking point. But anyway if the dems call for a vote it would seem to be a slam dunk to vote him gone and be done with him. I am sure they could get two rinos to go along. So why keep delaying?

The red state Senators up for re election are hearing about it and it isn't good news. They need to sit there and hope the smear makes the Administration cave without a vote

I've been right and I reckon I am right again

    I agree and some background supporting:

    https://www.politico.com/story/2018/09/25/red-state-democrats-kavanaugh-841400

    Also think the Dems realized they may have fucked themselves in that their actions to date have pissed off a bunch of never-Trump conservatives and conservatives that probably wouldn't have come out for the midterms. I think they think their best bet now is to double down and try to get a few wobbly Republicans to cave, and then hope that pisses off the base enough at the Republican party itself that they don't go vote in force in Nov.

    I could be wrong. But isn't the majority party the one who calls the vote? I'm pretty sure both sides don't want a vote right now or else it would have happened.

    The GOP has bent over backwards to give the accuser a chance to appear. It was all over the news. Now the GOP says the vote is Friday whether she shows or not

    Low info honod

    The democrats have called for delay after delay

    You should just stop there.

    All this 35 year old BS is to stop Trump. If they could prevent this appointment and win a seat or two we'll have no supreme court nominee during Trumps term. It's the resistance run by Soris, Obingo and company.

    I've already stated that the Dems could lose big in this. If kavanaugh is booted and they run on the "referendum for supreme Court" they will probably lose. The supreme Court justices rile up conservatives more than liberals.

    The longer it takes to have a vote the less time Trump has to name a replacement. Then, anybody named as a replacement will either be labeled a racist, rapist, thief, etc. This is all a tactic to delay until after the midterms.

    I do not care if Kavanaw gets the nod or not. But, this made up bullshit story by Dems rubs me the wrong way. Trashing a guy and tarnishing him for life for nothing because you don't like his politics is over the line. The Dems who cooked this up have zero decency or humanity and should basically be drug behind a mule for a few miles.

    If I was Trump I'd withdraw this nomination and put forward that much more conservative woman and let them try and tar and feather her. I think she might even be to the right of Scalia. It would be the perfect just desserts for these morons going along with the Feinstein frame an innocent man plan. Problem is, Murkowski and Collins the RINO cunts that they are would fuck all of that up.

    No shit. Even if the plug was pulled today, no chance another justice is nominated and confirmed before the midterms. And that's my point. The tactic could backfire on Democrats.
