Lindsey Graham suggests KBJ would not get thru a GOP-run Senate: "If we get back the Senate and we're in charge of this body, and there's judicial openings, we will talk to our colleagues on the other side. But if we were in charge, she would not have been before this committee." — PolitiTweet.org

This Judiciary meeting on KBJ captures the tensions. To GOP, Bork fight was the root of all evil and Thomas & Kavanaugh scars remain. Democrats say Mitch McConnell broke the process in 2016 by eliminating the presumption that a SCOTUS nominee gets a vote. https://t.co/BZAcIFCKDP — PolitiTweet.org

A fact to consider: Clarence Thomas was confirmed by a Democratic-controlled Senate in 1991. A Judiciary Cmte chaired by Joe Biden sent him to the floor even though he failed to win a majority vote. Today Republicans don't plan to extend that for KBJ (Dems have to discharge). — PolitiTweet.org
