When I told a very seasoned, senior Democratic strategist this week that Republicans viewed the Kavanaugh fight as the left’s dress rehearsal for Trump’s impeachment, she said, “They’re not wrong.” nytimes.com/2018/10/04/us/…

“This is a dry run for the impeachment.” The right tries to keep the base on edge over Kavanaugh. But does it last if he gets conformed? With @maggieNYT nyti.ms/2Crr7zU?smid=n…

Trump’s aides had been uneasy about how controlled, restrained he was - for him. Then came tonight when he couldn’t hold back anymore and mocked Blasey Ford. nytimes.com/2018/10/02/us/…

Trump, Kavanaugh and the appeal of "Mad as Hell" politics. How long before Kavanaugh's face starts showing up on signs and t-shirts at MAGA rallies? (with @susanchira) nyti.ms/2OkZWfs

This from @adamliptak will stop you:
Thomas was in the bathtub when he learned that the Senate had confirmed him. “Whoop-dee-damn-doo,” he said, according to his memoir. He went on to become the most conservative member of the Court in modern history. nyti.ms/2OpcOS0

The look on Jeff Flake’s face now is pure anguish.

Lindsey Graham is nodding, in apparent approval, as Flake calls for a delay of the Kavanaugh floor vote by a week.

A pretty good Cormack McCarthy reference by Sen. John Kennedy just now before the Kavanaugh vote: “This is no country for creepy old men.”

No doubt politics is deeply embedded in this process. Has corroded it, possibly irreparably. But Republican senators were moved by what they heard from Kavanaugh today. And when they say they believe him, I believe they mean it. twitter.com/Redistrict/sta…

Lindsey Graham was just chased down the hallway by protesters screaming and shaking their fingers at him. Doesn't stop interview with Fox. "These people can yell all they want to. Doesn't matter. I believe him."

Calling a committee vote tomorrow morning indicates Republicans have a lot of confidence Kavanaugh squeaks through. It also suggests, some sources are telling me, that Susan Collins was reassured with what she saw. That would make confirmation a lot more likely.

That question @KamalaHarris just asked - Did Kavanaugh watch Ford's testimony - is the same question Senator Howell Heflin asked Clarence Thomas. Thomas also said he didn't watch.

I've seen a lot of Republicans imitate Trump. But what I saw today was a fury between members of opposite parties that is as profound and unnerving as I've ever seen. They're not faking it. twitter.com/JRubinBlogger/…

A lot of Republicans are privately fuming at the way their own people ran this hearing. twitter.com/RichLowry/stat…

I’ve already confirmed @realDonaldTrump is calling senators and demanding vote(s). He believes #JudgeKavanaugh. First vote on motion to proceed in Saturday at Noon. I don’t understand —really can’t— how a rule of law conservative could do other than vote yes, reject Borking 2.0 twitter.com/jwpetersNYT/st…

This is a serious statement. I don't think the crying will play well with the president. He's publicly mocked politicians who cry. (Schumer, Charles). But Kavanaugh's aggressiveness could make the tears moot. twitter.com/katierogers/st…

After his uneven, halting Fox interview, Kavanaugh's allies were worried. Said he wasn't defending himself adequately and told him he had to be more forceful and specific. They got what they wanted.

I doubt it's accidental he's channeling Clarence Thomas, whose forceful rebuttal to Anita Hill was a factor in salvaging his nomination. "This is a circus. It's a national disgrace," Thomas told the Judiciary Committee in 1991. twitter.com/kasie/status/1…
