So let's call the whole thing off! Republicans, just do it!
My modest thinking on the Republican Cost benefit analysis going on....lose the House for sure as Millions of Angry Women give you the boot AND put the Senate in peril...for a tainted confirmation to SCOTUS? Which means, if the Senate and House are lost, impeachment of that confirmation?
Many more consequences from all that, none any good.
Not to mention Millions of Angery Women and their Angry Daughters are not likely to forget...for at least 32 years, like Citizen Ford did not forget.
Real head scratcher for Republicans...never had to face that formulary before.
Now they have to add in Shitler's' insane attack on all historical sexual assault victims, their friends and families, law enforcement and prosecutors, therapists and the criminal justice system as a whole.
How does that rejig the numbers, Republicans!
Let's not call the whole thing off is...no longer an option.

AND which gives the Republicans control of the House and Senate again...
They will have their 5-4 majority on the SCOTUS to rule that the THEFT (by vote machine hacking) never happened.
