betting odds on predictit are 50/50. Rare to have such an even split.
I think he'll be confirmed and seated on the court. it's just he said/she said, and the repubs think they will be helped in midterms if they firm up the base with a confirmation.
But of course a confirmation could go other way - to tick off millions of suburban women just exactly at the wrong time.
So, L L and agip, you both believe he will be confirmed after we are now up to three and possibly more women who have come forward? There are already 7 Republicans who were sitting on the fence before Avenatti came out with the fact he has a female victim along with at least one other corroborating witness.

That's what a true a$$hole says.
when gop leaders are saying 'ok we'll listen to whatever but we won't change our minds' that's all you need to know. GOP senators on that committee have completely left behind their advise and consent responsibilities - they are publically saying that they have made up their minds already. It's so f'd I can't even say.
In the end 9/10s of the time parties hang together. That's what will happen here.
