So, where are we with the Kavanaugh nomination as Monday comes to an end? The key fact is that, after not agreeing to hold a hearing let alone delay the vote, Grassley agreed to hold a hearing and delay the vote. The hearing, he decided, would not be until next Monday.

This means another week of stories, week of news, week of doubts, week of waiting. Another set of Sunday newspapers and Sunday shows. The aim all along has been speed, and no delays. ... It’s very hard to see how delay could now be good for Kavanaugh.

That doesn’t mean it’s fatal, in and of itself, but Republicans have made it clear that they control this SCOTUS process, and I’m not sure I see an upside for Kavanaugh to, on THIS Monday, putting off a further hearing to NEXT Monday. Look at how much happened today.

An FBI investigation into Dr. Ford's allegation against Kavanaugh MUST be allowed to take place and run its course *before* any additional hearings in the Senate.

what is the point of asking mcgahn? he's the one putting him forth for nomination. he already knows all of this which is why the GOP stood ready and waiting to hand out letter from 65 women, most of whom have recanted their support.

Nice retort. Makes perfect sense, though; no facts, just insults from the uninformed.
