Has the campaign against Barrett fizzled out already?
One lesson learned by the GOP from that crucible: don t give Democrats enough time to generate smears. Even if the election wasn t four weeks away, Lindsey Graham and Mitch McConnell would fast-track Barrett just to reduce and hopefully eliminate the amount of time that Senate Democrats have to manufacture smears and slurs. That might be tougher to do against a woman, but it s not impossible, and Senate Democrats demonstrated their willingness to useĀ any means necessary to control any openings on the Supreme Court in 2018.
That hasn t changed in the time since, and I doubt that either Graham or McConnell think that Democrats attack has ended at all. It seems more likely that they are looking on the horizon for a fully functional Democratic Death Star to take aim at Barrett.
