He will absolutely not be the 50th Yes. I think he would jump to be the 52nd Yes. However, Kavanaugh's ceiling for confirm votes is 51 and I'm not sure if Manchin wants to be the 51st Yes. I'm leaning no and hope he finds even a fraction of the courage Heitkamp showed, but I can't categorically rule out that he hops on if there's already 50 Yes votes. Only surprising thing for me about the cloture vote was Murkowski voting against it. Like damn, I said all along she was a no vote on the final vote but I thought she'd vote for cloture, but apparently she's a turbo no vote. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? ...
