Romney backs pre-election Supreme Court vote, paving way for McConnell, Trump

I must admit I was somewhat pleased to have read the Obituary.  I thought the full State Funeral to be a bit over the top, though.  Everybody there named "McCain" were shameless in banging the cup for that.

"I didn't attend the funeral, but I sent a nice letter saying I approved of it".

I don't really trust Romney, but at least he's taking the first step here towards doing the right thing on the upcoming Court fight.

This will further isolate Murkowski and Collins.

I sense that pressure from her constituents and a close race (in which she is behind but MIGHT have a chance at winning if she votes "aye") may "turn" Collins to our side.

Murkowski is lost to us.

Having said that, I'm thinking that Joe Manchin of WV is going to vote "aye", too.
We'll see.

That's possible. I saw several interviews of him (non-political) -- faith and family are extremely important to him.  IMHO I still think he's going to put his disdain for Trump aside for pro life. I would be surprised if there is more to his coming forward and saying he would back a vote for the Supreme Court than just that. 

Yes, he went against Trump on impeachment because that is the stance he believed in -- not necessarily because it was anti-Trump (supposedly).

Yes, Mittens has been a disappointment, more liberal than I ever thought, but again, there is a chance for the courts to vote pro life and I think he's in.

We all saw the same thing for the pro-life Congressman Bart Stupak when he had the chance to block Obamacare due to his supposed avowed commitment against abortion.

He folded like a cheap suit when he got the chance to look like a hero to the Dems, and Romney will do the same.

Thanks for reminding me about Bart Stupid.  Traverse City can do better.
