Chris Coons: If I were to guess, Kavanaugh will be 'narrowly confirmed'
By John Bowden - 10/04/18 02:07 PM EDT

Delaware Sen. Chris Coons (D) says he expects Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh to be "narrowly confirmed" following the FBI's supplemental investigation into his background, the results of which were shared with the Senate on Thursday.

In an interview with "Fox and Friends" Thursday morning, the Judiciary Committee member told the hosts that while he still remains personally opposed to Kavanaugh's nomination to the court, he expects Republicans to have the necessary votes for the judge's confirmation.

"I think this will be a very close vote. It hangs by a few undecided Democrats and Republicans. I haven't read this report yet, [but] if I were to just guess today, he would be narrowly confirmed," Coons told the Fox News hosts.

I'm guessing not that close.  If/when they put it to a vote, they'll know they have 50, and so will the D's.  Knowing they've lost, many will vote on qualifications before politics, knowing that someday it'll be their guy up there.
