For the sake of being realistic, lets say they are going to hold a vote on the candidate and it ends up being like 51-50 with Pence being the tie breaker. I am curious at this point who it will be:
In one corner we have Barrett the darling of the far right Catholic coalition, who was reportedly pasted over for Kavanaugh because Trump wanted to save her for this seat.
In another we have Babs Lagoa, who apparently the Floridians are really pushing, by saying it will help Trump win Florida if he picks a Cuban woman from the there.
And finally we have dark horse candidate, Mother So Dear's very own Britt Grant, of the 11th Circuit.
Does Barrett get edged aside because the President's advisors think it will make the Dems look bad to attack a minority candidate? Will the Pubs push forward a Gorsuch type candidate in hopes of a Kavanaugh like response that will push moderates back into the Republican fold?
Because, lets be honest, the President doesn't care about jurisprudence, all he cares about is headlines.
