You must not be familiar with Patty Murray. But in terms of Collins, the hawt takes are that this cements her legacy somehow.She's possibly the stupidest (or most disingenuous, take your pick) senator there is, and I would have said that 6 months ago also. She'll believe literally anything anyone tells her - like the FBI investigation was very thorough or that Kavanaugh won't vote to overrule Roe.

Besides money in politics, the fact that politics is treated like a sport to win, with only 2 teams to root for, is one of our nation's biggest problems.

I remember her letting Clinton off, her defense of Planned Parenthood and steadfastness in voting to keep Obamacare. It was a speech of a quality I didn't expect from her, that's for sure.

Try 2020, but yes, gone.

Heh. I am not impressed with Patty Murray either.

Well, I for one am glad to see this coming to a finish. Looks like the vote will pass, and people can get no to other things.
I consider it a win for the Constitution. The rest of the noisy was unnecessary and pretty much irrelevant given the task at hand.
...oh, I know about the others, but they were never really in the race...but I would really like to see a moderate/independent strong enough to destroy the Dems and Reps in the POTUS election...Senate and House too for that matter.
Grassley came out and explained why no republican women were on the committee and his reasoning was "it's a lot of work". WTF? They are definitely the party that still lives in the dark ages where they want women to stay home, raise kids and have the dinner on the table by 6:00pm and if they get raped, should just lay back and enjoy it.
Here are some other views.

The Laudenberg quote made me close my eyes. Involuntarily. And Lockman's made me verify that this shit was real:

These quotes alone have sapped me of hope for the day. See you guys later.
You gotta know how to make that happen though.
A third party will never be viable until we change plurality voting.
I feel terrible not backing up the conservative side of this and I have plenty of problems with how the Democrats went about this. That said...

I saw his testimony and had a Susan Smith flashback. I knew she was lying the instant she spoke.
On the other hand I've come to the realization that he HAD to lie. I'd have said I drank a lot when I was a kid and may or may not have done what she said. And then I'd have been voted out.
I don't know if he did assault her and if he did I don't know if it was as bad as she claimed. I really don't. I suspect that he did.
I'm just sure as shit that he lied about drinking too much. My built in lie detector isn't proof though.
You lost on November 8, 2016.
You lost again today, October 5, 2018.
According to the polls, you'll lose again on November 6, 2018.
Your bitterness and hysteria in defeat is understandable.
This. Though it's been interesting on 538 that the chances of the D's getting the house went from over 90% to 74% in the last couple of weeks. R's are now projected 77% of the time to keep the Senate. Those aren't using polls from after the 3rd, so it could be different. The logic has been that the R's pushing Kavanaugh through would help in the Senate and hurt in the House, but the trends (again: "polling") aren't showing that....according to "the polls" Clinton was suppose to have kicked the shit out of Trump in the '16 election. derp

November's going to be interesting.
YES!
Or... No parties at all...
