      1) They're afraid they can't get a new candidate through in time for November. 2) They're afraid withdrawing will lead to even more depressed turnout. 3) Many are afraid of setting a precedent of "guilty until proven innocent" based on the media rather than a hearing.https://twitter.com/NGrossman81/status/1043135053159649280 …

      Why not replace Kavanaugh? I keep returning to this. It'd be better for the country and grant greater legitimacy to conservative rulings. The answer I'm left with: Fighting Democrats is all-consuming. They must suffer--even if it hurts the country and risks long-term policy goals

      Possible they fear it, but all 3 misguided. 1) Ignores changes Kavanaugh gets voted down 2) They'd get equally excited behind a new nom. Losing vote could depress turnout too. 3) Based on incredibly cynical, unsubstantiated assumption that every future nominee gets accused.

      Also, note that those three possibilities all fit within the partisan fight framework. 1) Don't let Dems delay! 2) Don't let Dems win in November! 3) Don't let Dems see that accusing nominees can sink their chances!

          On #3, I honestly don't get why no one is pointing out how Gorsuch had none of these issues at a time when the bitter partisan wounds were even more raw (immediate post-election). Seems somewhat relevant.

          I'm pointing that out constantly. Also, if Democrats were going to make up sexual assault allegations against political opponents, they would've gone after McConnell, Ryan, and others. It's so cynical, so nonsensical, that it's hard to believe people believe it.

          I don't get why he was chosen in the first place, really. A strong legal mind, sure, and Kennedy vouched for him but even McC said he would cause problems.

          My guess is he's the one most likely to rule that the president can't be subpoenaed, or otherwise subject to the law.
