With Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) and Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) announcing their support for Brett Kavanaugh, it appears the Supreme Court nominee’s confirmation is assured.
However, the actions of GOP Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, another moderate, stunned colleagues by joining Democrats opposing Kavanaugh. Conservatives are still fuming.
Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin strongly hinted at challenging Sen. Lisa Murkowski when the state’s senior senator is up for reelection in 2022.
Murkowski, a three-term incumbent, voted “no” to invoke cloture, a strong indicating she’ll oppose the final vote on Kavanaugh’s confirmation. (RELATED: RINO Throws Curveball Into Kavanaugh Confirmation)
Per Gateway Pundit:
Palin wrote on Twitter Friday afternoon,”Hey @LisaMurkowski – I can see 2022 from my house…”
Hey @LisaMurkowski – I can see 2022 from my house…
— Sarah Palin (@SarahPalinUSA) October 5, 2018
Palin and Murkowski are longtime political foes. Plain defeated her father Gov. Frank Murkowski in 2006 in the GOP primary, thwarting his reelection bid. Palin successfully endorsed GOP challenger Joe Miller who defeated incumbent Sen. Lisa Murkowski in the 2010 primary. Murkowski then controversially ran as a write-in candidate, winning reelection over Miller in the general election.
Wikipedia notes Murkowski, who initially was appointed to the Senate in 2002 by her father Frank Murkowski when he left the Senate after being elected Alaska governor, has never won a majority of the vote in the general election.
“Although Murkowski has won three full terms to the Senate, she has never won a majority of the vote; she won pluralities in each of her three races, with 48.6% of the vote in 2004, 39.5% in 2010, and 44.4% in 2016.”
