What else do you plan to do besides tweeting?

What do you expect her to do? The responsibility of getting Republicans to oppose Kavanaugh does not lie with her, but with US!!! Democrats are tweeting because that is an effective way of telling the people to CLOG REPUBLICAN'S MESSAGE SYSTEMS
-
I expect more than tweeting. Press conferences... walkouts... protests led by the Democratic Congressional leaders in every district. Flood the political talk shows... political ads with facts about Kavanaugh’s writings and opinions from what they have released. Like that!
-
They are doing that (though McCain's death and Trump's everything make it hard for Democrats to make the news unless they've done something horrible) And as for walkouts, they have a greater problem:
-
Mitch McConnel can (and has) cancel their recesses, which you know, is important if you are A DEMOCRAT RUNNING FOR RE ELECTION IN MISSOURI OR MONTANA DURING OCTOBER. So they have to do everything in their power, except the one thing that will ensure Kavenaugh gets confirmed
-
Because think about it: if they walk out, thus delaying confirmation, Mitch McConnel will prevent them from going home, thus ensuring several of them lose re-election, thus guaranteeing that Republicans will confirm him AFTER November
-
That makes no sense at all.
-
Let me put it this way: hardcore delay tactics will cost vulnerable Democrats their ability to campaign, and therefore will only delay Kavanaugh until they lose re-election. Hardcore persuasion tactics (ie 1 million voice messages saying NO) will delay it indefinitely.

So, SENATOR Gillibrand, what are you personally going to do about it?
-
Be nice to have another high profile senator on this coming fight. Hey remember when
@SenFranken questioning of Jeff Sessions forced him to recuse and become powerless in this entire investigation? That seems like the kinda guy to have strategizing on this right about now. -
Franken was very intelligent, did his homework, & what we need more of.
-
Absolutely. The Democrat party needs more people like Franken groper.pic.twitter.com/YnZhLWzXHb

I’m gonna NOT ascribe any one man’s incident warranting DUE PROCESS of investigation or its relative severity to a whole party or side because it’s Wednesday and we don’t need a better reason to not waste our time as the tally stacks.

I have contacted my Senators
@ChuckGrassley and@joniernst with my concerns. They both responded with letters reassuring me what a fine nominee Kavanaugh is. Even IF that is true ... it's simply not the time to appoint someone. And they stinking know it. -
We have to be suspect to any Trump selection.

Confirmation hearings start this week. I'm so excited for
#ConfirmKavanaugh week.


-
My Favorite reason I can't wait to
#ConfirmKavanaugh is so I don't have to keep listening to Democrats bitch about it.
Also, he's qualified and will uphold the Constitution. Have a nice day. -
Well, that was professional
. Good luck with the senate race. 


-
Good luck is right. Such a nice sampling of what is lacking: politeness, levelheaded communication, basic leadership indicators. Sigh.
