Rick Santorum gets into shouting match with Democratic strategist who warns him GOP will 'rue the day' on Kavanaugh

A Thursday CNN panel went completely off the rails when democratic strategists suggested Sen. Heidi Heitkamp (D-ND) was likely voting her conscious because she doesn't think she will win her election anyway.

"Listen to the emotion in her voice, having faced women and helped women who have gone through this," said Hilary Rosen. "And if Republicans take this issue and go state by state stomping on survivors who legitimately came forward with a claim of sexual assault as some rallying cry for victory, you will rue the day. Not only will you rue the day in electoral results, you'll rue the day for your daughters, your families, everything. I will be more ashamed --"

She was quickly cut off by former Sen. Rick Santorum (R-PA) and asked where she saw something like that happen.

She tried to continue but Santorum ultimately proclaimed it as a "ridiculous argument."

She explained that President Donald Trump going state-to-state to stump for Republicans by stomping on the hearts of women isn't going to be a good look for the GOP.

"You have a shadow of a point in this," began conservative columnist Mona Charen. "There is one person who has behaved badly here, which is President Trump who, in his rally, did things that were despicable...But that is not the whole Republican Party."

"What are we showing, Mona? This whole fantastic victor? We railroaded it through much less those lying women! What are they going to say? What makes this political?" asked Rosen.

Charen explained that Republicans are spinning it as Kavanaugh being the victim of a character assassination.

"If they can look at Dr. Ford and say that and go out in public and claim that, shame on them," Rosen closed.
