Check the timelines on nom's getting in, even if someone is rammed through starting today there isn't enough time before the MT's.
The schedule is defined by the Senate majority. If McConnell wants, he can bring a final nomination vote to the floor on the same day as the President makes the nomination. It would be highly unusual,
Not only would it be highly unusual it's simply not realistic here, can he do that, technically sure. Even McConnell knows as partisan as the senate is a lot more than 2 republican senators will have a pretty major issue not letting reasonable due process happen for a SCOTUS nomination... While the republicans hold a majority it is literally the smallest majority possible so McConnell knows he has to be extremely careful. McConnell even told Trump Kavanaugh was going to be a hard guy to sell even with senate majority.
No one is talking about a senate vote for another nominee before MT's.
How 65 women came to Kavanaughs defense in matter of hours
That's a cute article I have one as well and this one has 200. 200>65 since you like to bold out how many people have signed a letter!
The alumnae behind the letter of support are from Holton-Arms School, a private all-girls school in Bethesda, Maryland. Sarah Burgess, an alumna who graduated in 2005, told HuffPo that, as of late Monday morning, more than 200 fellow alumnae had signed on to the letter.

Christine Blasey Ford is brave, deserves to be heard, and treated with respect as she raises new questions about Brett Kavanaugh. No votes until that happens.

The letter's authors wrote that "Ford's experience is all too consistent with stories we heard and lived while attending Holton," and said that "many of us are survivors ourselves."
The letter of support for Ford stands in contrast to a separate letter, written by 65 women who purport to have known Kavanaugh while in high school. That letter was sent to judiciary committee chairperson Sen. Chuck Grassley, and ranking member Sen. Dianne Feinstein, and in it, the authors and signatories vouch for Kavanaugh's character and behavior toward women.
