The Right hates Kavanaugh. Calls him a RINO. He is the most centrist candidate of those considered.
Consider this: Kavanaugh has to withdraw, Rs hold senate (gaining Tester's and McCaskill's seats). After election, Rs will feel emboldened to pick a true lunatic like Barrett. It is possible the Ds win this battle only to wind up with someone worse?
