1. Is she willing to bet money on it?

[lapfog_1]

7. she is willing to bet the lives of millions of young women on it.

so yeah...

[LandOfHopeAndDreams]

18. Now 52

Heidi is a No, so max seems to be 52 now.

[Iggo]

3. How many women's lives is she willing to bet on "probably?"

[DeminPennswoods]

4. Roe won't be overturned per se, just chipped away at the edges

until it's effectively undermined.

[Stallion]

15. SCOTUS Will Return Abortion Issue to the States

...many Republican states will outlaw

[Iliyah]

5. Over 100 thousand of Native Alaskan's want a No vote

because sexual assault is just wrong . .

In other words, they believe Dr. Ford as majority of Americans do.

Also, they know the FBI so called investigation is a sham.

[still_one]

6. no doubt, and there also isn't any doubt he will be confirmed. The only thing saving Roe would be

the other SC justices, and I sure wouldn't count on 4 of those judges

[dlk]

8. Is She Willing to Bet Her Senate Seat on It?

Pathetic backpedaling will get her voted out of the Senate

[MineralMan]

9. "Probably" Doesn't Cut It.

Nope.

[delisen]

10. "probably" In 2020 we need a Democrat in that seat.

Legacy and Royalty damage America; appointed by her Daddy who became Governor and gave her "his" senate seat. Time to return Alaska to Democracy.

[bdamomma]

11. "probably won't"

yea, sure he won't

How stupid are you both, of course he is going to overturn Roe, what other way to discredit and demean women, but Kava not and tRump come from the same cloth.

[MineralMan]

12. Well, neither of them is going to be affected at this point.

The old "well, it doesn't really concern me" excuse applies, I guess.

[targetpractice]

13. No one will...

It's an important issue our society, but the Republicans need Roe to stand as a Red Herring to fire up the evangelical base every election. If it was overturned, then what? Same-sex marriage is a non-issue now. They really want Kavanaugh regarding many other issues to keep them in power.

[Freethinker65]

14. No need to overturn it, just allow states to make it non-existent. You can legally own a unicorn.

Too bad you will never be able to find one. Expect more fetal heartbeat and fetal pain non scientific based legislation, bizarre ever changing facility and provider regulations, reporting requirements and costly certifications, etc.

Wealthy females and their daughters will continue to be able to have abortions outside of the US. as will mistresses and fuck buddies of wealthy conservative "family values" males. The less wealthy are on their own with no prenatal nor maternity care required to be provided by for-profit GOP approved affordable insurance plans that no longer have much to do with health. And don't even think about government subsidized housing, education, or nutrition for these infants of God. The wealthy will still need more tax cuts (at least those of the wealthy that do not practice tax evasion).

[NewJeffCT]

16. LOL - will she put her money where her mouth is?

when he does vote to strike down Roe, or essentially make abortion illegal in all but the most extreme circumstances, will she renounce the GOP and caucus with the Democrats?

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

17. Well that's her justification to vote to confirm.

We're all screwed.

[bdamomma]

19. may be

she asked Mitch??? he is the devil personified.

[delisen]

20. Susan Collins is up in 2020. Which Democrat can win this seat?

[demmiblue]

21. I know Dr. Cat London is running:

Family Medicine Physician, mother to 2 sons 4 rescue dogs, sometime runner, Democrat candidate for US Senate.

I don't know how viable she is, though.

[delisen]

22. Thanks.

[Bayard]

23. If senators actually voted for what their constituents want

We'd be in much better shape.

[book_worm]

24. "Probably" and also there are lots of other decisions affecting women

do you really "concur" that he will really be fair?
