    1. This is a key point. With his nomination under threat, Kavanaugh deliberately racheted up the partisan rhetoric with the view that he could win (win narrowly, but still win) with just GOP votes.https://twitter.com/saletan/status/1048247833151848448 …

    A comparison of Kavanaugh's written statement to his oral statement shows he inserted partisan language to motivate Republicans. http://bit.ly/2BY8Zwo  pic.twitter.com/wuNPzOlwHD

        2. So what will be the outcome? Kananaugh at hearings raised the spectre of partisan revenge ("what goes around comes around") & if he wins, it'll be with only GOP support plus (at best) Manchin. The most partisan justice ever.

        Judges aren't supposed to be partisan in that manner and to threaten revenge against their political enemies. That's by ABA & John Paul Stevens turned against him.

        But perhaps the real question here is, were his claims actually true? Because the truth isn’t partisan. It is, simply, truth. And a whole lot of people, both in the US and around the world right now, think that what he said WAS the truth.

        He also will fail to hold Trump accountable at any level.
