They couldn't stop him from getting out of Committee, there's no fear of a worse candidate. Voting for him or any other is going to result in Nothing. And why does a no vote here preclude turning up the heat on others?
We’ve got a lot of nominees to consider, and a lot of places where we need to turn up the heat under the Senate Republicans. (Yes, Betsy DeVos, I’m looking at you. And Pruitt, Mnuchin, Puzder, Price, Tillerson – it’s a long list.)
The ugly truth is that we've got to pick our battles, and as awful as Carson is he's not nearly as bad as the others she enumerates. I have forever lost what respect I had for McCain, Graham, and Rubio for capitulating to Tillerson FFS.

Radiotherapy pretty much said this, but:

Carson isn't a battle. Neither was Pompeo. Dem's can't stop them. Others won't be a battle either. Sessions, DeVos, not a battle.
So I've been right all along? We're all gonna die?
