I suppose in theory they could.
But not confirming anyone for 2-6 years is not exactly a great plan.
It's simply not realistic... and would give the opposition too much fodder. I suppose it's possible that's their master long term plan, but I don't really buy it.
If they were willing to stall this one to be able to then not confirm anyone for 2-6 years, why wouldn't they have done the same for gorsuch and submitted sexual assault claims for him and everyone after him until now?
Accusing this of being a strategic and patterned accusation, when we have seen no pattern and the strategy just doesn't seem that worth the effort..... isn't really great.
