    After Flake was confronted by protesters, he was clearly distraught in committee room. And after he listened to the fiery debate in committee, he approached Coons. He told me later it wasn't just the protesters, it was close friends calling him. Our piece on how it all went down:pic.twitter.com/zqHej59sy7

        I am beyond done with @LindseyGrahamSC he is coming off as petulant and hypocritical. He helped to refuse even a vote on Merrick Garland to let the voters decide, but now he thinks a week is more than enough time. No, this is a farce. We will remember and vote at midterms.

        He is a perfect example of why we need term limits. He has forgotten who he works for. His constituents.

        The only constituents that matter to these creeps are corporate lobbyists.

        Especially after Citizens United. Corporations matter more than individuals. Sad.

        In a democracy, shouldn’t it be troubling that protesters (which were many and vocal) are overlooked in favor of close friends?

        To be fair it does seem like he sought out his friend for advice because those protesters stirred his conscience.

        it was astounding to me that before the women spoke to him at the elevator he said he was going to vote yes on Kavanaugh. Flake sat through the whole thing and was going to vote YES ????????????????????

        It makes u wonder who/what is putting THAT much heat on them that even a RETIRING Senator doesnt feel he can speak/vote his conscious. It's bizarre! If he was moved by their pleas or it even changed his mind a little why on earth wld he STILL vote "yes"?!

        Whatever the reasons, @JeffFlake finally did the right thing. He needs to make sure that the investigation is not a rushed job.
