Well, that didn’t take long. As Twitchy reported only about an hour ago, Amy McGrath, who’s challenging Mitch McConnell for his Senate seat in Kentucky, might have ticked off enthusiastic donor Alyssa Milano by telling a reporter for the Courier-Journal that although she found Christine Blasey Ford credible, she probably would have voted to confirm Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. After all, a lot of time had elapsed between his high school days and his hearings.
"McGrath: You know, I think that with Judge Kavanaugh, yeah, I probably would have voted for him."https://t.co/RbQOY0YD0J

Upon further reflection, however — and probably a lot of calls from angry donors — McGrath said soon after that no, she wouldn’t have voted to confirm Kavanaugh.
I was asked earlier today about Judge Brett Kavanaugh and I answered based upon his qualifications to be on the Supreme Court. But upon further reflection and further understanding of his record, I would have voted no.
