The smear campaign against Bork was immediate and successful and his nomination was blocked by Senate Democrats with 97% voting "No".
All Democrats voted "Yes" as did most Republicans on Senate Vote 242 which confirmed Breyer.
Still, the 22 "No" votes were all Democrats and represented half the Democrat caucus that year.
40 of the senate's 42 Democrats voted "No."
Eventually Senate Vote 111 approved Gorsuch on a partisan 54-45 vote with Democrats holding ranks, as usual.
Less than 10% of Senate Democrats joined Republicans in voting to affirm Justice Gorsuch, 42 of 45 voted "No".
Democrats on the other hand kick, scream, resist, defame, bully, filibuster, dredge up 30-year-old sleaze, threaten to hold their breath until they die, throw tantrums, and refuse an affirmative vote when they are not in power and a SCOTUS seat becomes vacant.
