    Pompeo likely does NOT have votes to get favorable recommendation from committee: Kaine, one of two Ds on panel to vote for Pompeo as CIA director, just told me that he has “serious doubts” about Pompeo nomination. Shaheen, who voted for him to CIA, also has concerns as does Paul

        If that holds, McConnell could still bring the nomination up on the floor despite the unfavorable vote in committee - a rare move - and he’d need at least one Dem defector to confirm Pompeo

        Pompeo and GOP leaders have been anticipating this, which is why he’s been courting moderate Dems like Manchin and Heitkamp and met privately with Angus King.https://www.cnn.com/2018/04/10/politics/mike-pompeo-confirmation-senators/index.html …

        He also didn't have to run for president. I'm not sure why we're surprised that a businessman with no understanding of politics makes bad nominations. That's what his voters wanted.

        Good, Pompeo does not deserve the nomination. He is nothing more than a yes man for Trump. And has extreme views against the LGBTQ community, Muslims, women's rights. And let's not foget he's a climate change denier. #NoPompeo

        I said something about how stupid Pompeo sounded this morning. He is not at all well spoken. You'd think that would be a requirement for the job.

        @timkaine @JeanneShaheen Please do not vote for him! We do not need a man who is so anti-Muslim, LGBTQ and who denies climate change. He will not be a good diplomat and should NOT be the face of the US on the world stage.

        Senator Paul has already gone from an ironclad No at the time of Pompeo's nomination to just having "concerns" now? By the time this reaches the Senate floor he'll be an enthusiastic Yes. Because Rand Paul.
