We heard that with Gorsuch, too.
Welcome to politics.

Sure he does.

Funny--I don't remember hiring him, or even giving him a job interview. I currently have 6 employees, and he isn't one of them.

Whoever it is, I know it won't be a woman. Trump might pretend to be considering a woman, but he only considers them for one role in his life, and it's not judge

I think with the number of Senate votes reduced from 60 to 51, he gets confirmed pretty easily. It puts a lot of pressure on Manchin, Heithkamp, Donnelly and McCaskill, especially. One or more will probably support the nominee in hopes of re-election, but in those states, even a yes vote might not be enough for a Democrat in 2018.

Which is why I don't vote, stand for the anthem, say the Pledge, fly the flag, or otherwise participate in any of the State's brainwashing.

I heard that both Newt Gingrich and his wife Callista will be at the announcement tonight. Callista is the US ambassador to the Vatican. Coney Barrett is a staunch catholic. Is this a sign it is her?

Callista Gingrich is going to be Trump's Supreme Court nominee?

Now that is breaking news!

Whomever of the group votes no is a certain loser this November. Yes votes means a few of them have some shot.
