Hale Razor ONE-TWEET DUNKS on Brian Fallon over latest Brett Kavanaugh polling

Greg P. | 2:12 PM on August 15, 2018

Brian Fallon is pretty psyched that a meaningless poll on Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh finds his support “underwater” with “15% favorable, 28% unfavorable, and 57% unable to give an opinion”:

New national poll shows Brett Kavanaugh is 13 points underwater, with more than half the public saying they don't know enough.
The only thing weaker than Kavanaugh's poll numbers at this point is Senate Dems who are still afraid to oppose him.https://t.co/mFUt5UsN97 pic.twitter.com/jG7fp0rrKE

Fallon, who was on the team that thought winning the popular vote meant something in the 2016 election, also seems to think this polling will mean something to Senators when they start confirmation hearing on Judge Kavanaugh in a few weeks.

But he’s mistaken, as the only “poll” that matters is of the 100 Senators, as conservative Hale Razor so aptly points out:

Slam dunk:

Oh, bless your heart, Brian.
Are those folks unable to find his prior rulings from his distinguished career? If they can't maybe they shouldn't vote in midterms either? Just a thought.

And Brian is still on his don’t-worry-about-Wisconsin strategy:

Hi, Brian. SCOTUS candidates don't run for office. They are appointed and confirmed. So the poll matters exactly 0%. Campaigning in Wisconsin, however, matters a whole lot.

So here’s my question/understandings:

With McCain not voting & if the DEMs hold (@JoeManchinWV @SenDougJones ) the vote is 50 – 49

It requires 51 votes to appoint SCOTUS & VP can only vote in the case of a tie

50 – 49 is not a tie so he loses right?

And let’s not forget to thank who made this possible! Former Majority Leader Harry Reid, everyone:
