This is the opposite of what the extreme conservative judges want to do:
The Senate has had 100 members since 1959.

Future of the Supreme Court
from this article:
“In the past year, conservatives on the court have already shown just how far they are willing to go in abandoning basic principles of political fairness if it happens to help their side. They have approved the Muslim ban by pretending, on the flimsiest of evidence, that it is not in fact a Muslim ban. They have allowed Ohio to purge its voter rolls in a transparent attempt to tip the state’s precarious political balance in the direction of the Republican Party. And they have upheld Texan electoral maps that had clearly been gerrymandered with a view to reduce the voice of African-American voters and make it more difficult for Democrats to get elected. “
Chief Justice Roberts sitting on complaints against Kavanaugh
Damage done to the Voting Rights Act by the Supreme Court
This is one thing that should be corrected by Congress. It won’t happen unless Democrats win.
McConnell calls Kavanaugh opponents a “mob”
He sounds like Trump now. I think that protestors should not have bothered Cruz in a restaurant or shout while Senators are speaking but McConnell is very wrong here.
We’re never going to heal the divisions in the country if one side talks like this. They don’t care.
Tyranny of the minority part 2
see my post from 9/13/18
This is so frustrating! A minority is dictating how the Supreme Court acts.
The Kavanaugh investigation isn’t over
The limited investigation was a sham limited in scope by the White House. If the Democrats win the House or Senate, I expect them to conduct a full investigation so we can find out what the truth is. I’m not ready to impeach him though I am very concerned about his partisan rant at the hearing. Let’s see how it plays out.
Final polls show Kavanaugh was unpopular but Republicans don’t care
Lack of popularity didn’t stop Trump/Republicans from withdrawing from the climate change agreement, try to build the wall, ban Muslims, try to destroy Obamacare, etc. They only care what their minority thinks. They have no interest in compromising.
Waiting for Trump’s reaction
After a long, contentious fight over the Kavanaugh nomination, a real president would try to heal the divisions. Trump will just gloat. It’s all about winning to him.
This is similar to my point of view. Let’s see what he says at his rallies.
Susan Collins will vote for Kavanaugh
I always thought he would be confirmed. Remember, this is the party that gave you Trump so they don’t care about character.
This is ridiculous after his partisan testimony:
Sad!
