would the left be happier if Kavanaugh's first name was barack?
As Steven Hayward on Power Line blog has said, the Ds are pot-committed to the Borking model of obstructing R Supreme Court nominations. And have boxed themselves into a "strategy" of obstructing anything and everything Trump attempts to do. So admitting the obvious, that Kavanaugh is an excellent choice, will result in Hell to pay with the DU-grade part of their base. They may eventually go that route, but for now they're stuck with juvenile mockery like this and trying to gin up something from Kavanaugh using his Visa (or MC, or ...) to buy Washington Nationals season tickets, for which they later reimbursed him.
