Sen. Chris Coons (D-Del.) said he wants Gorsuch to get what former President Barack Obamas nominee, Merrick Garland, never did: a hearing, a committee vote and a floor vote. He wouldnt say how he plans to vote, but voiced concern over the possibility that McConnell will use the nuclear option.
Also Manchin or Feinstein or Corker would be an issue.
60 votes will not be a challenge, trump gets his way again.

I hate the WV and ND Senators doing this, but I can undrestand it. But Feinstein??? Unforgivable.

if they filibuster the GOP will repeal rules of the filibuster
Democrats should take this opportunity to raise funds and to make floor speeches demanding a more moderate candidate etc.
but he's going to get his ways
elections have consequences.

Not interested in being a "downer" just frustrated that we don't present a more unified front on these things.
Tired of being the republican party's chew toy.
