COMMON SENSE: On Saturday, once Ruth Bader Ginsburg has been buried in Arlington National Cemetery, name Judge Amy Coney Barrett to succeed her. There are several great reasons why you should choose her instead of the other candidates.
First, she has already been thoroughly vetted and moderately hassled by the Democrats. She can not only take the heat, but I doubt there will not be any surprises with her. Unlike the others, she is a known commodity. With her, the chances of an unacceptable issue arising are practically nil.
Second, as the mother of seven children, two of whom are Haitian adoptees, she has a squeaky clean reputation. Even if she wanted to have an affair, there’s no way she would have time to engage in one. So, let the Democrats go after her character between now and the time of the election. This will definitely work in your favor.
Third, let them attack her Catholic values. This will put Biden and Pelosi on the defensive. They would have to explain they wear ashes on their foreheads for Lent while vilifying a fellow Catholic for her faith.
Fourth, have Senator McConnell schedule the vote for the week of October 26th. That way, Barrett will be the campaign issue all the way until the end. It’s a winning issue for you,. The longer the Democrats are nasty to a Catholic woman the better it is for you. This will offend Catholics and Evangelicals in PA, WI, MI, MN, and even in FL and NC. There is no downside to this.
Fifth, the greater the emphasis upon her Confirmation the better it is for your reelection. In the last election, when push came to shove, the authority to appoint Justices to the Supreme Court trumped every other issue in the minds of your voters. It’s why you won and it may be the reason you are reelected.
RBG’s death was providential. The timing has jettisoned all of the dirty tricks the Democrats have been planning. Now, with no preparation, they have to focus exclusively on trying to stop Judge Barrett from being confirmed, and they don’t have any realistic way to succeed.
