   Good Point @TomSea but both Gorsuch and Kavanaugh should NOT have been a stretch for the GOP, since McConnell went thermal.
   Hypothetically, how would a Strict Constitutionalist like Cruz or Lee fare through that good ol boys club, even being that they are universally hated by that august body?

Can't really fault him.  But we will have to wait and see which way Kavanaugh rolls.

If you keep telling yourself that you are 'winning' over and over again, you may one day believe it - despite evidence to the contrary.

I don't think the US will ever recover from GOP adopting to social justice madness.  We have allowed our morals to be tossed in the wind for too long.  A more Conservative Judge could not be confirmed at this time.  Look what they did to a moderate judge.

Maybe so. But that suggests that any part of what you are seeing is real...

The only way you will find Conservatism these days would be to go outside the GOP.

Lindsay Friggin Elf-shoes Graham  :mauslaff:  I think Mr. Elf is going way overboard now.  Hard to take him seriously.  He's trying to impress way to hard.  Trump and Elf shoes are like the Odd Couple.

I was one of those who have given you a ration of crap.   I painted you with too broad a brush.  I was wrong and I apologize.

Oh, @Axeslinger  You weren't that bad and I totally forgive you and deeply appreciate the apology.  It is a rare thing for me to get.

   Romney's a Republican first and foremost he'll do everything he can to protect the Brand, even it he's convinced he has to destroy Trump to do that..  Stock up on popcorn.

Establishment types, Rhino's?  According to Susan Collins Kavanaugh should have been a golden gift to Democrats from the Republican party.  I have no complaints as long as his decisions are based on the Constitution.  But when Collins went on about same sex marriage and abortion I wondered what their problem with him was?  I understand legal precedence.  Can't really fault him.  But we will have to wait and see which way Kavanaugh rolls.

My guess is going to be the direction Republicans have been going for a long time.  Further left.

C'mon you guys.  I think Kavanaugh will be a great Justice.  He had to take certain lines to get by the idiots.  He's made so many decisions in his time on lower courts and all of them have been beyond criticism.  I'm thinking and hoping he will be a strong states rights advocate and will help states to pass anti-abortion laws statewise.

Romney is a weak guy.  I couldn't believe how he laid down in the second debate with Obama after showing a little something in the first one.  Obama should have been a piece of cake for Romney to out-debate.  Obama is dumb.  I don't think Trump has much to fear from Romney.

One thing that Trump gets right about Democrats is that you can't be nice them...because they certainly will not be nice to you. You have to tell the truth about them.
Tell the truth....Dems are scoundrels. Both McCain and Romney tried to be nice. They both got beat.

Not yours or mine.  Never happen.  I have my sights on defunding Planned Parenthood.  It is unconstitutional for our government to force Americans to pay for abortion.

I have my sights set on NOT funding Planned Parenthood.  Every year, it requires action and a vote to fund them.  Without that action or vote, they would not receive a dime of taxpayer money.

The term 'defund' implies an action be taken, when in reality no action at all is required.  Unfortunately, our Republicans take action each and every year to hand over $500 million of our money.
