So apparently Flake gave a “throw the bums out” speech in New Hampshire, which as people may know, is regarded as a key presidential primary state. There’s really no other reason for him to be speaking there, except that he’s campaigning for president. First of all, what voters is he courting? He has no chance to be president in even the wildest scenario. Then, if he votes Yes to confirm Kavanaugh later this week, then what the hell did he even give this N.H. speech for? So I really think he’s giving this speech to steel himself to vote No and incur the wrath of McConnell, Graham and them. But maybe he votes yes, as these people never cease to amaze us in their thoughtlessness, either. Also, Democrats still need at least a couple more No votes from the R side, even if Flake votes no.
