Ofc whoever they would have picked in place of Kavanaugh would have voted the same, but the fact she is expressly using these cases to justify voting for him is funny. Yeah I know, I just felt you were slightly misrepresenting the situation. | ||

She is making the argument that Garland and Kavanaugh voted together, implying it's all fine and democrats should be happy ? ok it's set in stone, she is defending presumption of innocence, she will vote yes. And there is 2 million in the bank for whoever her opponent is in 2020 as of today. So it should be fun to watch. | ||

Collins : "We should believe and listen survivors, even close friends told me they were assaulted !" Also her : "If you have no proof, f*** you I'll confirm that guy !" (Well, presumption of innocence IS important, so I kinda agree uncorroborated allegations should not block people blindly. However, no mention at all of Kavanaugh's behaviour...) edit : done, confirmed. | ||
