      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 …

      Jeet Heer added,

      Will SaletanVerified account @saletan
      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.

          And one of the least supported justices by the American public in our history.

          Most avowedly/openly partisan. Thomas probably more so.

          Might be time for a constitutional amendment putting final say on Supreme Court justices up to a fully popular vote - just yea or nay.

          And a Supreme Court that, at least for many years to come, has four Democratic justices that required 60 votes, and two Republicans that only needed 51.

          I just wonder what effect that 'revenge' would have on Roberts. We will see over the next decade+.
