Don't think you're going to be able to cram this guy into SCOTUS before the midterms. And I'm thinking the Lame Duck session isn't going to work too well either.

What was that thing Mitch said about letting the American people decide about the next nominee?

If not, never underestimate the ability of conservatives to simply brazen out opposition when they have the chance to gain by simply pushing. It ain't over until he is bona fide out, and it won't really be over until conservatives are driven out of power and left muttering in their cups. And unfortunately, that ain't happening anywhere near soon enough.

Relish in anticipation all you want, old chum, but it hasn't happened until it happens.

I'll save my celebrating for when Kavanaugh is through the door or out the window.

But I’ll sure be glad to cheer when it happens

He'll withdraw for personal reasons, not wanting to subject his family to this kind of harassment.

We'll have a new nominee by the end of the week, if not sooner.

Good riddance asshat.
