General Discussion
In reply to the discussion: Whatever the FBI finds, Kavanaugh will NOT be confirmed for SCOTUS [View all]unitedwethrive
(1,997 posts)It is possible that part of the backroom discussions before they agreed to a limited FBI investigation was for him to publicly make statements saying that if the FBI found wrongdoing that he would vote against Kav. This calms the Democratic side and makes us thinking that at least someone on the other side is being fair minded. It also brings down the level of vitriol the repubs have to face this week.
With the limited scope of the FBI investigation, they will certainly come back saying that there is no way to definitively prove that an assault ever happened (and no mention of lying before the committee), and Flake will take the lead saying that he now feels comfortable voting for him.
Okay, I may be a "keg is half empty" kind of gal, but fool me once...
