Looks like it may be down to Amy Barrett or Brett Kavanaugh for Supreme Court pick

CBS News has learned that D.C. Circuit Court Judge Brett Kavanaugh and Chicago Circuit Court Judge Amy Coney Barrett are currently Mr. Trump's leading contenders for the appointment to the nation's highest court.

Kavanaugh is a bit more centrist and Ivy League, while Barrett has a more pure conservative paper trail
I’m worried Barrett would not be confirmed. Media will go full on Bork over her

Kinda hard to Bork a woman but I bet the Dems try to Bork anyone that is nominated...

Both are good picks

You know McCain's replacement will not vote to confirm, nor Jeff Flake. Then you have your folks like Susan Collins, so there are three "no" votes from the RINO Caucus.

Both are Roman Catholics

Can’t wait to Bork every nominee Democrats fling against the wall.

she's already being slandered at every turn, having her views completely warped and distorted. It's disgusting.

I love her already

God I don't want Kavanaugh. He's another swinger like Kennedy.

She should show to the Senate with a picnic basket. Proceed to the table set up for her. Spread a red/white checkered tablecloth. Produce a bit of wine, cheese, crackers, some potato salad, couple pieces of fried chicken...
Sit there sipping wine and chowing down while the Dems go apeshit maligning her. Dismissively wave her hand when actually questioned, and state, "that's not what I've said/written, but whatever".
May as well since not one thing she says or does during the hearings will matter one bit, straight party line voting.

Judge Barrett could get it.

Trump does not need to go with a centrist. He needs a hardcore conservative.

Don't overlook the Georgia Peach

Whoever is appointed is likely to be the deciding factor on whether assault weapon bans are constitutional and is the 2A restricted to "hunting" firearms.

Barrett, please.

"Kennedy’s lack of real guiding principles had the happy consequence that he sometimes voted for the right legal outcome — and even sometimes concurred in opinions that reached the right outcome for the right reasons. But we hope that his successor will have a much stronger sense of what fidelity to the law requires. And any plausible Trump nominee will be an improvement."

Where can we review their conservative bona fides? Does she have enough time under her belt to be certain about how conservative she is?

The thing about Barrett that Dems will use against her is that she has been a federal judge for less than a year.
