@jonathanweisman Then why have only 2 vulnerable GOPers come out for delay?
I disagree that SCOTUS fight hurts swing-state GOP senators. SCOTUS fights are base motivators & generally GOP base is more motivated.

@DKElections Portman, Toomey, Johnson, Ayotte all back McConnell. -
@jonathanweisman So they do. Still believe GOP will be on defense over this all year long.

Threat is rank obstructionism energizes Democrats, which DOES threaten GOP. Esp on top of minorities.

@jonathanweisman So this is MSM spin? GOP base in SWING states will decide gen elect cuz apparently Ds too dumb to realize importance of SC? -
@goodnewsgoddess@jonathanweisman the Democrats problem is they are too much a collection of interest groups--much harder to motivate -
@mlow29@jonathanweisman Oh? Was that the case in the last 2 prez elections? No, so you're wrong. -
@mlow29@jonathanweisman What many are too embedded in CW bubble to see is SC fight puts@POTUS front & center on elect ballot for 3rd time.
