    The FBI spoke to Kavanagh's bros. They all said he was a good guy, so he didn't do anything wrong

They didn't investigate any of his perjury statements. This investigation was done for people like you to be like bUt THeY dID iNvEsTIgAtE.
    Not sure why you're implying that my post somehow means I think the investigation was done well or something. Just because I don't make unequivocal statements all the time means I'm satisfied with the process.

    I think it's a sham directed by the WH as a good faith handout to Flake/Collins/Murkowski so they can vote yes without losing their seats from the backlash. There, happy?

    edit: before someone goes full REEEE about it yes I am aware Flake is giving up his seat. I mean the latter two senators.

    I think this has done a fine job of energizing EVERYONE to get out and vote.
    Indeed the proverbial hornet's nest has been kicked on both sides with this circus. R's are legit fired up right now it would be silly to ignore that.

    Its been fun seeing never trumpers get on board with Trump because of Kavanaugh.

    And by fun I mean not terribly surprising.

    Deplorables aren't black, they get out and vote. The fact that we're stuck with Chief Bonespurs should tell you to take deplorables seriously.

    No for real though complacent mocking is a great way to ensure a red wave and fuck this place even more supremely than it already is being currently.

    Fight their policies. Educate. Vote. I don't get mad at much in politics (could be argued that I should but another time) but young liberals dismissing the right as this huge blob of fools that can't engineer their way out of a paper bag is absolutely maddeningly frustrating. If that's true then wouldn't it be super easy to debate them into oblivion? Fucking do it then. VOTE.

    Just so you don't think I'm talking out my ass

    https://www.npr.org/2018/10/03/65401...dge-evaporates

    In July, there was a 10-point gap between the number of Democrats and Republicans saying the November elections were "very important." Now, that is down to 2 points, a statistical tie.
    Democrats' advantage on which party's candidate they are more likely to support has also been cut in half since last month. Democrats still retain a 6-point edge on that question, but it was 12 points after a Marist poll conducted in mid-September.

    No matter what there's not going to be a "red wave," but the point is that there doesn't have to be.

    Democrats could win 3 Senate seats and still keep the balance exactly the same if they can't defend the places they're vulnerable. They could win 20 House seats and still fall short of the majority.

    Republicans could absorb big losses and still remain in power is the thing, meaning 2 more years of this.

    Let's tone down the rhetoric on some red wave shit. Republicans have made less than a point jump in the generic ballot since the hearings. White males are pissed. That's about it. Democrats are still polling better now than they were a month ago. There shouldn't be a surprise that the GOP got a slight bump after the hearings started, and it shouldn't be a surprise when he gets confirmed and polling has a retalitory snap in the other direction. And when the dust settles in a month, it shouldn't be surprising if the end results fall in the middle.



    TYL: Polling bumps happen during highly polarized events. huh.

    Jokes aside I agree with you. I just think any level of dismissal or complacency when most of these races are neck and neck is supreme folly.

    I remember when the polls looked like that, and I remember watching them tick down all month leading into the election. Like I always knew Hillary Clinton was never going to be President, but I just let myself think maybe, maybe with Donald Trump as her opponent, but nope.

    RBG is immortal, that's unlikely.

    So glad the senate got the Kavanaugh patch and now cry randomly while speaking.
