Too Clever By Half. Democrat Intransigence Is Bringing Vichy Republicans Back Into the Fold

Brett Kavanaugh has been the subject of a vile smear campaign designed to damage his reputation and to try to force the nomination of a replacement for retiring Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy into next year. Any delay is a win for the left. If the GOP retains control of the US Senate–this is the likely outcome, though we are the stupid party so we can actually muck up an election where the Democrats are defending as many as 9 vulnerable seats and we’re pretty much a lock to keep ours–then the Supreme Court is frozen for a term by a 4-4 split. This means that critical votes on the Second Amendment and free speech and protecting the integrity of your ballot and redistricting will be kicked down the road. If, as is possible, the GOP loses the Senate then we are looking at either another two years with a 4-4 court, assuming Death has taken an holiday, or putting on the court another David Souter or worse.

When Christine Ford came forward with her allegations, California Democrat Dianne Feinstein sandbagged them for two months to prevent them from being investigated, then dropped them on the last day of the hearings in order to delay the confirmation vote. At first blush, it seemed successful. Bob Corker and Jeff Flake expressed ambivalence about voting for Kavanaugh unless Ford was given a public venue to spread her calumny. And, of course, the real target here was Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski who would probably vote against confirmation unless the “victim” was heard.

While Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley scheduled the hearing that everyone seemed to demand, the Democrats began to get cold feet. Dianne Feinstein even publicly expressed ambivalence about the truthfulness of Christine Ford. Ford’s attorney is casting doubt on any testimony by Ford unless the FBI investigates (the FBI doesn’t investigate non-federal crimes and it doesn’t investigate derogatory information uncovered in a background check, it just reports it) and does so extensively. Jeff Flake was nearly in tears:

They may have overplayed their hand.

Bob Corker says Ford needs to testify or there will be a vote:

Jeff freaking Flake says Ford needs to testify or there will be a vote:

And both Collins and Murkowski have seemed to have had enough of the emoting by Ford and her supporters:

It is looking very much like Monday is actually crap-or-get-off-the-pot time for Ford. If she testifies, fine. If she doesn’t, fine, too.
