more people will come forward and he will be an even bigger embarrassment than now.

This is a big motivator for conservatives, and him getting confirmed a full month before midterms would take a big arrow out of their quiver and could mean a lot more stay home because they just aren't motivated for anything. Meanwhile, Democrats and Independents would hold onto their anger and outrage and unleash it at the polls.

As for the repukes, they always vote, no matter what! If their numbers are down a little, its because some of them died off. Believe me, if they still have a pulse, they will vote. Its up to us to outnumber them, EVERYTIME the polls open!
