3. His country club friends will probably give him the evil-eye.

4. I want to see how he said it.....

If he said "once it comes out of committee" it is a non-statement.

The qop will bottle it up there. The dems will have to pass a resolution to move to debate without a committee vote.

That is something Manchin has refused to do for reasons.

5. Manchin has many faults

But he is a reliable vote for Democrat-nominated judges.

6. He's not the one I ever worried about.

For all his faults and overall issues he's usually a relatively reliable judicial vote. I figured he'd vote for her.

Simena,on the other hand...
