        If you were truly Machiavellian you might say that the best case scenario would be for Kavanaugh to serve as a martyr before the election. Then nominate Barrett who’s practically unimpeachable following this circus.

        I address Barrett in my column. My concern is that it gets dramatically harder to confirm a conservative judge after November.

        Absolutely. But on the flip side some of these Senators like Manchin and Tester (and even Bredesen should he win) could arguably vote for her way easier after November.

        Fair point. Pressure goes both ways.

        The smartest political thing to do is to move on quick and nominate someone else.

        I like all the arguments you present in the piece. Something's got to give, the GOP needs to get creative (I won't hold my breath). Kavanaugh is doomed.

        If we give up on Kavanaugh we lose.

        How pathetic are you 12 likes and 4 repeats three hours in. Me thinks somebody's buying followers again.

        Would he be able to vote to confirm himself, or would we start one vote short?

        If they fail to confirm Kav for any reason or pull him for anyone else, I see the base fracturing and there will be an intentional blue wave to prove a point. I’ve seen countless conversations and threads to this.

        When you reward bad behavior, you get more bad behavior. The only way forward is to #ConfirmKavanaughNow

        I'm laughing at "abandonment as a political strategy," but when it works, well, it works!
