They're in a bit of a hole, here, though. Because they really wanted someone who didn't have a dodgy record with women, given that he's going to vote to strip women of basic rights. The optics are really, really unpleasant and they were trying to avoid it.
They can't stop the nomination, because the base really thinks that "Me Too Has Gone Too Far", so pulling the nomination would be giving in to the Libtards and would drive the base into a frenzy.
Also, of course, Kavanaugh is literally the most executive power friendly justice they could imagine - which means Trump is never going to let anyone else take the nomination, to make sure he's protected in the future.
So, they're now stuck with Kavanaugh and Thomas taking away womens rights, and no matter how they try and spin it, it's going to be a terrible look for the people who confirmed him.

Comparisons are inevitably being made with the Thomas/Hill hearings, and various media (including the WaPo) are reminding us of Thomas' famous line about "a high tech lynching for an uppity black".
But that's not what he said. They really shouldn't use quotation marks for avoiding an offensive word. Asterisks can do the job. It may be well intended, but it's getting history wrong, and only feeds the false memory that once upon a time things were just fine because everyone was civil.
