i m just not sure. i mean, i doubt that those fbi investigations went back to college. i doubt they went back to his high school yearbook. they usually go back to 18. they do go back to that. has it ever presented a problem, is the way yeah, it is asked. you have ever seen them intoxicated? before last week, chuck, no one has ever said it presented a problem about bret kavanaugh. that s the truth. or maybe it did and, to your point, the administration was like, eh, we can overlook that, and we find it acceptable. i wouldn t call it breaking news, per se, but a breaking update from dr. ford s lawyer, as we ve learned, the fbi is not going to interview her. well, her lawyers put out this statement, quote, it is inconceivable that the fbi can conduct a thorough investigation of dr. ford s allegations without interviewing her, judge kauf n kavanaugh or the witnesses we have identified to tyou. ....
But if this is some hurry up and get it done, limit the number of witnesses, we don t have time to spend another day on it, we have to vote before friday or saturday, then a lot of us are going to be disappointed. what is the what is your sense of how many senate democrats are still actually undecided on judge kavanaugh? i would say there are probably two that have not announced what they re going to do. maybe it s only one at this point, but it really it comes down to this. if the three republicans who are at the center of attention, as they should be at this point, undecided, should decide to move in the direction of voting against judge kavanaugh, i think democrats will be united, as well, against him. should this fbi report be made public? it seems like there s some disagreement among even senate democrats on the judiciary committee about whether the report should be public or whether having you guys get a look at it is enough. well, historically, it s been ....
Senators heitkamp and manchin and you ve got large majorities that are in favor of judge kavanaugh. would you understand if those senators said, you know what, i m here to represent my constituents, at the end of the day. listen, i would totally understand that, chuck. but i want to tell you something. having spoken to my colleagues, many of them have said, they are going to vote their conscience on this. this is an historic choice. if it s not popular at home and they have to pay a price for it, they re prepared to do it. i think that s part of the oath of office we take. to stand up and do what we think is right, even if it s politically unpopular. it s my understanding senator schumer brought up the idea that if democrats take the senate, reinstating the filibuster. you would potentially be supp t supportive of bringing it back. is there enough support to bring it back? i ve gotten the sense that there might not be. well, there are mixed feelings, because of what we went throu ....
Debating his it yoj. you were already opposed to him before the character questions rose, so, what are we debating? it is a question now of credibility, temperament, demeanor and whether or not this man should be giving a lifetime appointment to the highest court in the land. there are many people who could serve in that capacity. he s not the only one. if serious questions are raised about his credibility, whether he s told the truth to the american people, he shouldn t be serving on this court. what could what could make you feel more comfortable seeing him confirmed, even if you re a no vote? i d like to know that the fbi would report back to us no strings attached, we made the decision, we had the allegations from dr. ford, from ramirez, from swetnick, we followed them as we would any type of an investigation, our hands weren t tied and we came up with the following information, read it for yourself, members of the senate, and you can reach your conclusion. with that kind o ....
Maybe we should say, today in house races that may not be in play anymore, call it triage time for house republicans in recent days. the house gop s campaign arm and the main super pac supporting its candidates has been canceling ad buys or not quite getting rid of all of them, but narrowing them down for incumbents like keith rothfus, mike coffman, kevin yoder and mike bishop. rothfus and coffman s races are leaning democrat. while yoder and bishop are still tossdowns. house republicans are still funneling resources to places that aren t quite as competitive anymore, or supposedly not competitive, like in nebraska s second district, where the gop hit the democrat in an ad. cook report rates that race as leaning republican. while some districts may be too far gone, they are trying to keep a blue wave from reaching the redder parts of the country. hence nebraska two still being a place they re advertising. we ll be back with more mtp ....
