My main disagreements with
@johnastoehr: 1. Not clear that all these judges would have been confirmed if Ds used maximum delaying techniques. If Ds could hold fast, there could have been a compromise to cut number confirmed 2. Save power for Kavanaugh? D's have no cards to play!Show this thread -
3. There is value in showing some backbone even if it means ultimately losing, for future battles over judges and other things 4. Not clear to me that getting a couple of good SDNY judges and getting D Senators back to states a few days sooner is worth what's lost by rolling over

Good discussion. Really, I could go either way on this. The clincher is that not one Senator criticized on this. I guess every one of them understands the importance of getting back to your home state to launch re-election campaigns, which traditionally start on Labor Day.
