Kavanaugh Confirmation

[T-TownVol]

There is not one single policy of Bredesen's from his time as Governor which can be called a policy of socialism. He gutted TennCare and refused a state income tax. Ridiculous.

That is like giving Clinton credit for the turn around in the economy while he was in.

 

[SLICKYINC]

The commercials that they are running from his HCA days are killing Scott's chances IMO.

They are more than likely shooting their wad early. Wait till the R pacs start running negative ads and maybe they have?

 

[NEO]

Who chose the list of names for the FBI to talk with? the media just asked.

How the hell does this reporter not know how this works???

This is scary.

The FBI does what it chooses and then reports the findings.

Damn, I mean this is really really scary.

I mean Grassley is even about to hit them with the fake news logo now!!!! Calling out their bias.

Crap, they are finallly realizing Trump has it right!

 

[Matt2496]

Yep.

If anything, it will be an extremely tight race.

 

[BowlBrother85]

If he was a decent candidate he would have this in the bag, Marsha is terrible.

I can't understand how people are buying Phil's blatant lies.

He was a great governor. It is ridiculous to say that a Democrat should ever "have this in the bag" in a statewide election in Tennessee! Dumb. If he called himself a Republican, he would have this in the bag.

There is not one single policy of Bredesen's from his time as Governor which can be called a policy of socialism. He gutted TennCare and refused a state income tax. Ridiculous.

He's not running for Governor this time. The Senate Dems vote as a group almost every time. He will vote with the rest of the Socialists if he is in the Senate.

Unfortunately, their "wad" is bigger than ours.

 

[Franklin Pierce]

Have you read his book? He's for 100% government, single payer healthcare. Is that not socialist?

And gut Medicare.

Bredesen will not vote for Trump's conservative supreme court picks.

Bredesen opposes the building of the wall.

Bredesen raised taxes by more than $900 Million as Tennessee governor.

Bredesen will vote with his good buddy, Chuck Shumer, 90% of the time.

GEORGE SOROS has donated money to Bredesen's senate campaign. That alone should be all anyone needs to know.

That is not true... and give me a break about the wall. So what? Mexico is paying for it. Remember?

 

[Orange_Crush]

And you are probably a paid troll.

By the Republicans? I can't imagine the Democrats would pay someone just to come on here and expose how stupid and brainwashed their platform really is.

 

[InVOLuntary]

And gut Medicare.

Bredesen will not vote for Trump's conservative supreme court picks.

I'm not sure having Chuck Shumer on your side really does much for your argument that you are not a socialist.

Have you read "Fresh Medicine"?

Here's a little excerpt explaining the principles he would push for. Read them and tell me how they are not socialist.

The American health care system needs a new set of principles. They should be:


—the highest quality in the world
— able to keep costs under control, realistic in comparison to other priorities, and fairly apportioned
—paid for
—universal, with a basic level of care a right for every American

 

[BowlBrother85]

I'm not sure having Chuck Shumer on your side really does much for your argument that you are not a socialist.

I'm not sure that the $12 billion bailout of the farming industry does much for the argument that Trump is not a socialist.

 

[hog88]

He would be the younger of the two Senators from Tennessee if elected. You do realize that I'm sure.

I fully support Lamar being run out of office also. Which I think this will be his last term anyway.

 

[hog88]

He was a great governor. It is ridiculous to say that a Democrat should ever "have this in the bag" in a statewide election in Tennessee! Dumb. If he called himself a Republican, he would have this in the bag.

If he wasn't a Schummer puppet he would have it in the bag, that and his socialist views on healthcare are just unacceptable.

 

[Matt2496]

They're raising money for Bredesen in NY!

Michael Bloomberg to hold New York fundraiser for Phil Bredesen

This should raise red flags.

 

[hog88]

And gut Medicare.

Bredesen will not vote for Trump's conservative supreme court picks.

True

When's the vote?

 

[Franklin Pierce]

When's the vote?

I'm guessing Saturday or Sunday, if the Communists have not burned down the Capitol Building.

 

[NorthDallas40]

When's the vote?

Final vote should be Saturday based on present proposed timeline.

When's the vote?

Saturday

 

[Boston Vol]

538, not exactly a bastion of conservatism, gives Blackburn a 66% chance of winning. It’s not a forgone conclusion, but would still be a significant upset if bredesen won.

 

[BigOrangeD]

Well said:

 

[vols4sure]

And by the way, thanks to the Kavanugh assination by the Democrats, Blackburn will win.

I disagree... I think Phil wins comfortably.

Just one person here but I do not like Blackburn and would have probably abstained from voting if not for the Dems actions with respect to Kavanaugh. She 100% has my vote now.
