Again, someone not a liberal is trying to speak for liberals. It's stupid when anyone does it no matter what side they're on. It only shows their own bias and misunderstanding of what they're talking about. Here's what I hate. I hate that this man showed us who he is, a partisan liar who can't handle criticism. If you or I acted like the spoiled brat he portrayed, we'd still be looking for a job.

Nope, I wouldn't give up. I wouldn't behave like he did either.

That wasn't part of the "job interview" process...that was Kavanaugh defending himself against, "I dunno" Ford's claims WHO has NADA - not even her BFF could back her up.
No, it was a simple question. So try again.

If they had to wait until Tuesday their consciences might kick in and they would realize what a creep he is and decide to vote NO?
That is really a strong support group then...really built on principles...
No, people have accidents and are killed or put in a coma where they could not vote. Some nut job could take out a Senator.

Saturday is just another day. No need to delay the vote.

Obamacare vote was taken around 1:30 am Christmas eve.

The Dems better hope they control the senate at everyone point from now until forever. After this, a dem president will never get a SCOTUS justice approved in a Republican senate.

Try for grass roots volunteers and donations and not really campaign against Trump as much as the person they are running against

The ones who can't seem to stay away from Trump are people like the FL guy running for governor whose ad shows his reading Trump stories to his kids...
There are others who are calling themselves more Trump than Trump

So maybe the GOP needs a real message as well...
Same out here in AZ. No one is campaigning on Kavanaugh or Trump really. It's about health care and education(D) and taxes (R). I was in WI for a few weeks recently and its the same there. Healthcare, healthcare, healthcare. Taxes, taxes.

No a Saturday vote is not just another day, they are rushing this through because they are worried about something. This is not normal, how many confirmation votes take place on a Saturday and this is Columbus Day weekend.
