Micah, I don’t know. I think it’s always easy to forget how quickly the news cycle moves on to other things. But this is happening close enough to the midterms that even short-term effects could linger. Again, because I think there’s more downside than upside for the GOP, that’s another reason why, were a Republican, I’d have wanted to have Kavanaugh withdraw earlier. If he’d pulled out two weeks ago, you nominate Barrett or something instead, I’m not sure Kavanaugh would be that fresh in voters’ minds by November.
