I watched some of it. Frankly, there's not much to see, really. Barrett's the smartest person in the room by a country mile, but not real keen on proving it. Thus, she just comes across as unflappable. The Repubs aren't saying anything worth hearing and the Dems are mostly just looking for ways to criticize Trump, since they've got nothing on Barrett and she won't take any bait. Look at Booker:
Lol, what a clown.

And it's interesting that the Dems have zeroed in on the ACA as the reason for the push to confirm Barrett. I think it's a clever bit of theater, myself. I think the push to confirm Barrett is just about getting RBG's seat filled by a conservative, nothing more. Anyone, Turley weighs in:

This is painful to watch. Any other time she would be confirmed with at least 80 votes.

Gotta say, I'm deeply disappointed with Coons and Klobuchar, two of--I thought-- the more serious and decent Senators in the room, with their approaches, yesterday. Coons came across like a patriarchal, patronizing douche, while Klobuchar was kinda just ranting.
And someone get a ball gag for Cruz, please.

This is painfully ignorant and terribly unhelpful:
Newsflash: chances are pretty good that--and this goes for everyone, including me--your "uber-clever" quip on twitter is not any such thing; really you'd be better off just shutting the fuck up.

"Or maybe you can recognize the world changes"....like Dan Rather no longer being a respected or serious journalist. |

I don't want her on the bench just like I haven't wanted any of the conservative picks on there.
Not gonna lie though, she's definitely the hottest SCOTUS justice we've ever had.

The nerve of those monsters for congratulating a woman for achieving something that few people ever do in history (regardless of the circumstances surrounding it, because I do think the entire thing was a total sham).
