Collins don't say you stand with us so know you have turn your back on us so so wrong thanks for the Big Slap on my face from you So know We will turn are BACKS ON YOU you are not Welcome How Dies It Feel Judas!!!!!!!

What ever happened to “it’s the right thing to do !?” The typical American lives this everyday. But Congress...

Sad!

Vote!

What a Great speech it was to. We Loved her speech and could have listened to more.😏

Naivete running wild

Collins was methodical with her facts and details. No emotion - just rational data. She was brilliant.

Again she disappoints!

This is about truth vs a lie. Sen. Collins herself is a victim of a corruption so powerful few can withstand it. Divine justice will win in the end. The Courts of Heaven does not operate on majority rule.

Im disappointed in you Susan Collins. Your state will be going shopping for a new candidate.

This nomination and cover up will be the catalyst that will defeat this administration and those that betrayed their oath of office to serve the people.

When they say facts were missing in Dr. Ford's testimony, what about all the facts swept under the rug about Kavanaugh. Sad day in USA

It makes you sick. All white old GOP men where on the Senate Committee not one woman. In the end they use Susan Collins and sit 2 women behind her to vote for this very flawed man. What a sucker she is.

She is the hero of 21st century.

The win is for us citizens, not TRUMP. GOP agenda is good for USA. lisamurkowski

It's an illegitimate win just like the election. The 1 week delay was a total set up. Go back and watch the video, very little reaction from R's about what was happening. If anyone really wanted the truth the words 'limited scope' wouldn't have been included.

Shameful!

Susan Collins couldn't just praise Kavanaugh and be done with it. Instead, she cruelly and callously picked apart Dr. Ford's testimony, aping every piece of GOP jargon. Especially the trite 'I don't doubt she was assaulted but this is mistaken identity' trope they've trotted out

SenSusanCollins coward. Disappointing

SenatorCollins I’m so disappointed in your choice to vote yes. I believe he is telling you what you want to hear but will act differently once appointed. I believe his belligerence & highly politicized rant, & lying at the hearing disqualify him. FBI invest. very limited by WH.

You mean that meandering self-justification? SenatorCollins should know by now - whatever Trump touches - dies...

She negated to talk about his temperament, his ability to be less political, and his aggressive nature. See former Supreme Court Judge John Paul Stevens comments.

I think she should retire from politics, but please do not go into theatre.

We all thought she might end up a Martha turned out she’s been a damn Aunt this whole time

Somebody flirted with Susan....we saw you trying to look fly on the floor for the 'mystery man'

She will go down in history as the woman who voted yes and betrayed women and democracy as we now know it.

Bought and paid for by Putin SusanCollinsRussiaConnections

Yes!

Commas are your friend,

Worst speech ever. Everyone tweeting for her to shut up or kill me now. We know when we are getting effed. Don’t need the explanation of why/how he’s getting the job done. SelloutSusan CorruptGOP

Her real reason for her vote for him: She likes beer, too?

Doddering old hag Collins-call her out for what she is! Old witch will walk away with 6 figure pension&permanent health insurance while leaving millions subject to that monstrous kavanagh who will dismantle ACA provisions to protect preexisting conditions!She should be quartered

And she showed herself to be a stepford hack

I bet there will be a substantial contribution to Sen Collins' campaign fund.

What goes around comes around! SenatorCollins let’s vote to unseat her and flip the congress.

Yeah, yeah, she told us all her reasons for caving and for turning her back on survivors of sexual assault. I hope she enjoys the next two years, because they will be her last two years in office. She’ll find out in 2020 just how well women remember who attacks them.

I am against Kavanaugh because of his rant about liberals & Dems at the hearing. THAT speaks of his judicial prejudice & his inability, after gaining Trump’s political favor, to remain neutral. SenatorCollins I am highly disappointed in your support of Judge Kavanaugh.

You mean she read a pre written speech authored by ALEC.

Shame on you, Susan!

Summary: She has no spine and is happy to be a pawn.

SenatorCollins is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. A passive aggressive, lock step greedy Republican who is drunk on her own power. She said she would only serve 12 years - lie. Her twisted logic today was disrespectful to women and the Supreme Court.

I’m so happy that I am free to just browse over those channels that just want to be political!

SenatorCollins Sen_JoeManchin JeffFlake need to raise their expectations for a Supreme Court Justice. 1,000's of law professionals & previous Justice said he doesn't have temperament & displayed he is partisan. ABA took back the 'gold standard' rating. VoteThemOut

We don't want to hear from that traitor to women.

In the words of Brett Kavanugh: what goes around, comes around. SenatorCollins I hope your loved ones are never sexual assaulted by predators like Kavanaugh.

Collins' husband has some serious Russia connections. I wonder what she was promised for the Kavanaugh vote.
