The 77 has been pretty on par with some of the more recent timelines. I think the "rushing it" issue is that some questions have come up — honesty, previous legal work, rape allegations — and the GOP wants to vote without getting any further answers. In their defense, it's going to be along party lines, so they do have a bit of a point.
The Dems were pushing the "rushing it" agenda long perform any accusations of sexual misconduct was brought to light. Let's be honest and call a spade a spade.
If the GOP wanted to vote without any further answers it would have happened on SEP 20 when it was originally planned.
