        I agree with the article’s statement: “An outraged base usually beats a satisfied base.” Which outcome is most likely to outrage which base the most? Which base is most likely to be satisfied? Is a swing in the midterms worth more or less than this appointment?

        the smart money has to be on amy barrett, right? it’d be the ultimate troll move - replacing BK with a woman impervious to these accusations who in turn would be the death knell of roe

        They do that and the GOP loses the House and the Senate in the mid-terms. Plain and simple.

        Mike Lee is sure to block any action against trump when it gets to the SC, so I would imagine that he would be a great choice, if you were on the obstruct Justice train.

        A Hail Mary pass is the LAST play of the game. There will be a GOP Senate for at least 3 months. If you had to pick someone on Dec. 15th, then maybe use a Senator you can confirm quickly...

        Besides, if Kavanaugh's nomination went down, aren't there several dozen others to nominate? Kethledge, Barrett, Joan Larsen, Diane Sykes...

        But the Senate? Is Mike Lee as replaceable? I think he needs to stay put!

        Nope. Trump should RAISE THE STAKES! The list of the next nominees should be (in increasingly horrific order): George W. Bush, Sean Hannity, Ann Coulter, then Trump himself, after he replaces Pence with Alex Jones.

        Or, you know, possible rapist. If the FBI investigated and cleared him he would be on the court. If only the FBI did their job here.
