Discussion: Collins Still Reading FBI Report, Won't Say Whether She'll Back Kavanaugh

1 Like

She should just go ahead and get her photo-ops by declaring that sheā€™s supporting Kavanaugh. Iā€™m tired of her bullshit about carefully considering blah blah blah when she always seems to find confirmation for the Republican votes on any subject.

Not too optimistic, but I suppose we will draw out the suspense as long as possible. I hope Iā€™m wrong!

Canā€™t really blame her. You know McConnell runs a tight ship, to the destruction of our country.

Earlier in the day, she told CNN that the FBI probe ā€œappears to be a very thorough investigation.ā€

Collins is gaslighting. Collins, Flake, Murkowski, Sasse, et alā€“theyā€™re all Trump now.

Sheā€™s been a yes from the start. Just drawing it out so there is as little time as possible for the backlash between her announcement and the vote. Just gotta get through the midterms here in Maine, and then it is on to a two-year effort to get her out of office. She doesnā€™t run or is defeated ā€“ either way, sheā€™s done. The anger among older women up here is off the charts.

Still didnā€™t get that call from Turtlehead yet huh?
He is still counting and he just might not need you for this one.
He never kept a promise to you yet, so stop wishing and vote no.

Yes, I can. She also knows McConnell and how seriously he has affected our country, including her own constituents.

The fact that she puts her own political life ahead of the people she was elected to serve makes her nothing better than the worst hard-core partisan from any other state. She does not deserve the attention she gets every time she squeaks little noises about not being sure sheā€™s going with the party line. McConnell is never going to do nice things for her or her state, but she craves the spotlight and repeatedly gets it with the same old Lucy-with-the-football routine.

Congratulations to the GOP. They effectively completed a limited in scope ā€œinvestigationā€ providing enough cover to the spineless GOP ā€œModeratesā€ and Manchin to force Judge Kavanaugh down the throat of America. In the process, they orchestrated enough ā€œRepublicanā€ outrage to get voters out in the mid-terms to maintain their Senate Majority.

Now itā€™s up to the Democrats to blow it and not take the House since they canā€™t seem to come up with any kind of unifying messaging. Dispiriting the left and emboldening the ā€œindependentsā€ to again stay home.

And thus, the GOP/Trump nightmare will continue.

I hope Iā€™m wrong on all of it, but Iā€™m not really very hopeful.

Why she playing we all know what sheā€™s going to do

ā€œThoroughā€? Thatā€™s the word? It was awesome, that era back a few years ago when words were attached to meaning.

ā€œSen. Collins, if you vote ā€˜Noā€™ on Kavanaugh and help scuttle his confirmationā€¦then there just might be a few of us who forget all about that day over Macho Grande.ā€

Sheā€™s such a TEASE!

With her head firmly lodged in her jejunum, Collins promises to push ahead and keep reading even though ā€œitā€™s dark in here.ā€

Remember, Susan, to Rapey McRapeface and his crew, ā€œyesā€ means anal.
