Here's where we stand:The Senate is technically on the Kavanaugh nomination as we speak, although there’s been no formal floor debate yet. The thing to watch for in the Senate is when McConnell “files cloture” or moves to end debate on the Kavanaugh nomination. We don’t believe McConnell will move to end debate until Wednesday at the earliest. Some conservatives heaped lots of criticism on Flake over the weekend for delaying the confirmation of Kavanaugh. It used to take 60 votes to end debate on a Supreme Court nominee.
