"You have 15 minutes to retrieve the document, read it, and get to the chamber to cast your vote," said Durbin, who slowly became cognizant of the binder-shaped bulge pressing against the jagged stitches transecting his abdomen. "The vote is Saturday. If you ever want to know what's inside that report, cut it out now. There will be no further instructions." At press time, Durbin had gingerly drawn the rusty hacksaw provided by his captors across the first few inches of his distended gut before being interrupted by a groggy Senator Cory Booker emerging from a nearby bathtub.
Fuck that guy. We need to primary his ass so hard. Knowing NJ it'll probably be someone even worse.
But it is a bullshit investigationFuck that guy. We need to primary his ass so hard. Knowing NJ it'll probably be someone even worse.
Got any booze on you?He already won his primary and is up for re-election this November. He'll win with your vote, I mean, who else are you going to vote for, the Republican?
So is the "family disowning you" shit, which mine did to me a few years ago when I came out to them as trans. Blood isn't all it's cracked up to be.
He should keep his mouth shut after all bullshit he pulled.
Being reported now that Daines has assured Kavanaugh he will be there Saturday to vote for him.
Probably will duck out during the best man speech, those things always go for ages.
Are any of y"all worried about rep enthusiasm increasing if Kavanaugh doesnt get through?
It did give the MeToo movement another big push giving even more women the courage to talk about their own experiences. And hopefully makes young men see it as something that almost brought Kavanaugh down, not as something he ultimately got away with.Think about how the person who leaked the letter will feel if it turns out that:
1) They outed a sexual assault victim who wished to remain anonymous.
2) Kavanaugh was confirmed anyway to the detriment of multiple institutions in eyes of tens of millions
3) Motivated Republicans to vote and keep Congress.
So sources are saying there might be 2 maybe even 3 GOP no votes?
Could it be happening?
No absolutely not. We HAVE TO snap out of this completly stupid fucking mindset of worrying about what we do or don't do rallying their base.Are any of y"all worried about rep enthusiasm increasing if Kavanaugh doesnt get through?
Precisely this. One thing is pretty clear. Republican voters are reliable. Pretty much their entire base will vote.No absolutely not. We HAVE TO snap out of this completly stupid fucking mindset of worrying about what we do or don't do rallying their base.
I have no idea why this thinking/talking point started but it is rediculous. Democrats have to ONLY care about what they say or do when it comes to rallying OUR BASE. The constant hang wringing and half speak for the irrational fear of how pissed the republicunts will be is incredibly destructive to our base.
Seriously quit it.
Is it irrational? It sure wasnt irrational in 2010, when the red wave took away all of the gains dems had made in the house. I asked (asked) my question because I have seen the poll numbers for the republicans increase these last few days, in a way that I dont think Ive seen during the entire year. I think that its a valuable discussion because if rep numbers are already going up because of "how disastrous the confirmation process" has been, how much would they rise if Kavanaugh didnt get the confirmation?The constant hang wringing and half speak for the irrational fear of how pissed the republicunts will be is incredibly destructive to our base and our enthusiasm.

He's still am elected representative so I'd prefer he actually doesn't keep his mouth shut, especially when he was never accused of fucking rape.
Very well, I wasnt aware that September was a fluke, nevermind my post then.If the comparisons are to numbers from September, those numbers were clearly a fluke and some kind of unexplaiend short term boost for Democrats that didn't match the previous months numbers like the current data does.
