Since day one, I’ve said that the confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh was a fait accompli. Barring a political miracle/disaster, I argued that Kavanaugh had a 100% chance of being the next Supreme Court Justice. his record was clear and there was simply no coherent way to deny his appointment. Red state Dems couldn’t afford to vote against him and, even if they wanted to, Harry Reid’s nuclear option probably ensured that the GOP already had the votes.
Now that he’s managed to skate through his Judiciary Committee hearing without a blunder, it’s looking more and more like that miracle/disaster will never arrive. Kavanaugh is all but a lock for the bench. However, there are those who are still trying to make one, final, supposedly-valiant attempt at denying President Trump’s nominee.
