    They could dump Kavanaugh and have another equally conservative nominee in about 10 seconds. So why won't they? Most plausible explanation: particular GOP elite affinity for Kavanaugh, and the sense that "sacrificing" him would be a rebuke of their larger professional network

        None of the other candidates that made the final cut had a well defined and known position on the unbridled power of a president. This above all else was what drove the WH to nominate him as opposed to other candidates that party leadership wanted.

        What a stupid uninformed opinion. All the final candidates were Fed Society members. They all have more or less the same opinion on executive power.

        Not one person asked about the $200k his mysterious benefactors paid off. Or #DeutscheKennedy which precipitated the nomination. This is not obstruction. It's #Collaboration. @TheDemocrats have made a show of opposition. It's up to the public to stop it. #KavaNO

        Wrong. Because this way of attacking can't just be accepted by admitting guilt to something that may not have happened. You think the next guy/gal wouldn't get the same treatment? Please.

        Neil Gorsuch didn't have anyone accuse him of sexual assault or harassment.

        No, because the Democrats would do this no matter what. Never forget one of those groups had sent an email with "We must stop XX" in it. A fill-in-the-blank. There's no credible reason to dump him.

        1) There's not time to get anybody else confirmed before the election 2) Why should we let a man's life be ruined by an unsubstantiated accusation the accuser appears reluctant even to testify to? & 3) We can't let the Dems discourage future candidates by caving to these tactics

        To allow this strategy to succeed means that no nominee would ever be confirmable. Any baseless allegation would be enough. What has happened to innocent until provide guilty? What is the EVIDENCE against him?

        Oh, like the precedent the GOP already set with Obama. The Dems would be more or less completely justified to just say "nah, we're not letting anyone nominate anyone ever again."

        And maybe because it would be very easy to get a 3 or 4 decade old un supportable accusation against any R nominated.
