Support for RESISTING has been pretty disappointing and frustrating on this issue on this site for some reason. I have noticed a general defeatist attitude. It seems like a lot of posters already assume he is going to be confirmed so why bother making any effort to resist despite the fact that our Dem reps on the Senate Judiciary are fighting and succeeding with new condemning info on Kavanaugh on an almost daily basis. Even the MSM is reporting on their successes so I really don't get the reason for this attitude with Dems.

I DO appreciate your efforts and a few others here who recognize there is a good chance that he won't get confirmed and are fighting this along with our reps. I wish I had a large family and more cell phones to use but there are only four of us in the country right now and one of them already works for a Dem rep in DC so I can't use her cell phone. My 84 year old mom started to do it after I went to her house to use her phone but then she started reading Fear so I have to remind her to keep calling between chapters.

RESISTANCE WORKS! Thanks again!!!
