Bloomberg has a different short list, but it does include two women:

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-06-29/trump-has-narrowed-supreme-court-list-will-reveal-pick-july-9


From the article:

Quote
Senator Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota, a top Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, said that no matter who is chosen, confirmation will rest on the decisions of two GOP senators: Susan Collins of Maine and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska. Both have expressed support in the past for Roe v. Wade, and last year they displayed a willingness to split with their party when both voted to defeat the GOP Obamacare repeal effort.

I still haven't heard anything on what McCain might do. Of late he seems to be going against Trump purely for spite. I read that progressives are gearing up boycotts of LL Bean and I forget what entity in Alaska to try and sway those two senators.

Do we know anything about the Second Amendment views of any of these?

Diane Sykes is very, very 2A.  She treats it and says it should be treated just like the 1A, like it means what it says.  Instrumental in Illinois getting Concealed Carry.  And shes' why the Ezell decision ranks up there with Heller and MacDonald even though it wasn't issued by the USSC.  It set the precedent for Strict Scrutiny in 2A cases.

Unknown about the other three, but I would hope that as a former Marine, Meg Ryan is pro-2A.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

McCain voted for Gorsuch.  He's been voting to confirm judges and the like, it's Trump's legislation his votes against.

Yeah, I keep a low profile, too.  I mean, nobody can tell what my politics are by scanning the net.

The Left is getting so wee-wee'd up over Barrett, that now I'll be disappointed if she doesn't end up on the Court.  =(

Alright, let's get this over with. Nominate the guy, so we can open the death-camps. I need some handmaids! I need some slaves! I need the stores to be closed on Sunday, for mandatory church services.

What about Wednesday evening? 

Maybe you could institute mandatory daily prayers that everyone has to perform.  Come up with some sort of system so everyone knows when it is time to pray like something over a loudspeaker.   Ummmm....
