Which Democratic senators might, repeat might, support Kavanaugh?

[LongTomH]

There has been talk that Claire McCaskill might support him, since she's in an essentially red state and she's embattled.

[Va Lefty]

1. Manchin (WVA) actually would be suprised if he didn't

[bearsfootball516]

2. Probably Manchin. Deep red Trump state. If he didn't support, the attack ads would write themselves.

Early polling shows him with a healthy lead. If he just doesn't shoot himself in the foot over the next couple months, he should be the favorite heading into November.

[WhiteTara]

3. Manchin and Heitkampt.

Manchin is the one to watch really. He's such a slime ball.

[Recursion]

4. Manchin and Heitkamp. Jones is a no, but won't agree to any procedural moves to block him

I imagine Schumer is going to instruct Senators to vote their constituencies and not whip this since there won't be any GOP defections.

[MichMary]

5. Manchin, Donnelly, and Heitkamp voted

to confirm Gorsuch. All three are up for re-election, and all three are from states that Trump won. Their electoral chances are on the line with this vote.

6. The Pukes have 50

So the Democratic Senators in blood red states will vote to confirm; it does no harm.

And, candidly, it's a useful move to confuse the mouth breathing idiots in red states and deprive the Pukes of a black/white issue even the mouth breathers can understand.

7. Manchin, undoubtedly.
