Unless the democrats come up with something in the last hour the nomination is over and we have a new Justice.

I am not doubting that Dr. Ford had an incident 35 years ago but the mind plays tricks. Recently a letter in the Wall Street Journal pointed to the number of men released from prison because of DNA proof that they were not guilty of rape even though the women in court were 100% certain that "he did it". They were not necessarily lying, but the mind plays tricks.

I graduated from high school in 1960 and when I look at my yearbook I can only recognize one person, my picture. The mind plays tricks.

Having been in a civil court where I was slandered and defamed (I won if you ask) I can tell you that Justice Kavanaugh will now be a different man than he was before. These types of slander WILL influence his decisions in the future. He probably will not be as fair minded as he was before. He may not knowingly lean a different way now but he will. The dems may regret this assault.

Finally, thank you Susan Collins for presenting things so clearly and eloquently. Lisa Murkowski, do men in Alaska not stand up and fight when a grizzly bear attacks and is about to destroy their family? Shame on you. We expect our judges to be human otherwise they can not share the human experience.

My Mom and my MIL are both 87. I hope you are wrong.

Ginsburg had pancreatic cancer. It is a miracle she is alive now.

The gamble of letting Garland go through, moderate liberal they say, blocking him and having Hillary win and pick a flaming liberal, or having Trump win and pick a conservative and we all know that Trump was never going to win. I don't know if McConnell has a time machine or could just see into the future. I would not want to play poker with a man that maneuvered that hand or was it just plain luck! Worked out for those with conservative leanings.

If Shillary won, the Senate would have approved Merrick, lickety split.

What I was thinking is that Obama might have withdrawn Merrick and let Hillary pick a real progressive. Who knows.

This is just one reason to have voted for Trump (if not the biggest). I predict he will have another justice to pick besides replacing Kennedy. Ginsberg is way past due.
