If the Democrats have the majority in the US Senate right now,

Would Chuck Schumer have denied Kavanaugh a hearing and a up or down vote by the full Senate like The Turtle did to Garland or Would Kavanaugh gotten a hearing and a full Senate up or down vote?
When Lindsey Graham stated yesterday at the hearing that he voted to confirm Kagan and Sotomayor, A Democratic US Senator at the hearing should have asked Graham if he voted to confirm Garland.

They should be; WTH are you blathering about?

Anyway, Graham says today Dems are telling him to shut up.

Not this Dem. Keep blathering, Lindsey.
Love it when you get the vapors.
