Like, we're supposed to be happy to have Dem representation in these states. But if they're not going to oppose Kavanaugh then what, precisely, are they worth to Democrats? If the threat to Roe isn't sufficient, then what is the big moment(s) when having the "D" next to their names means something more than, in the wise words of @cocksailor "conservatives who want a thank you card"?

*this is obviously in anticipation of him getting a Senate vote. I appreciate the pain in the ass that the Judiciary Committee Dems are throwing into this, but it's not going to work in any immediate way.
