Whitehouse on DoJ’s Blanche Hearing: Republicans Up for Reelection, Need to Consider How Much Baggage He’ll Dump on Them, If They Confirm Him
RUSH EXCERPT:
WHITEHOUSE: "I think, as you mentioned earlier in the program, there are some of them that are up in the air. There are also, I think, people who are watching this on the floor who are not members of the Judiciary Committee, but are Republicans who are skeptical about this. And I think every Republican senator up for reelection in November or wanting to stay in the majority in November, needs to consider how much baggage blanche is going to dump on them if they vote to confirm him. The record from his appointment as acting attorney general and deputy attorney general. Until now is terrible. And if that continues, there will be more scandal, more disgrace, more baggage for them to have to explain. Having voted for him a second time."
