Comparing Senate Democrats' behavior to Mccarthyism, McConnell, R-Ky., vowed there would be a final vote on Kavanaugh's confirmation in the Senate this week, saying "the time for endless delay and obstruction has come to a close." "If you listen carefully, Mr. President, you can practically hear the sounds of the Democrats moving the goalposts," McConnell said. Speaking before McConnell, for example, Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., charged that Kavanaugh had unleashed a disqualifying "partisan screed" in his opening statements. But significantly, Chris Coons, D-Del., a key Democratic member of the Judiciary Committee, did not sign the Democrats' letter. "A fundamental question the FBI can help answer is whether Judge Kavanaugh has been truthful with the committee,” Sanders said.
