Collins keeps surprising us, in election after election, there is no denying that.
Ok, I’ll make an effort to say one thing positive about her: Susan Collins is a hard-working senator. She rarely – if ever – misses a Senate vote. Imho, Democrats should try to replicate that, the latest example being Senator Whitehouse missing a key vote that enabled Republicans to table the bill.

No, I think Sheldon Whitehouse is a good man. Check out his series of lectures on how dark money, through the Federalist Society, Judicial watch and other right-wing organization, captured the Supreme Court and much of the rest of our judiciary.
Imho, Senator Whitehouse would have been far better than Durbin as chairman / ranking member on the Senate Judiciary. I hope he soon replaces Durbin in that role.
Yep, he was a marvelous Senator in the former country known as the United States of America. We have so little room for error nowadays, as we try to salvage a democracy, and missing out on opportunities is painful.
My impression is that, because of comity, much of the Senate voting schedule is by agreement between the Majority and Minority Leaders. Surely Chuck Schumer knew when Whitehouse would be traveling.

Why did he miss that vote?
He was traveling, returning from a visit to South Korea. I blame Schumer for not doing more to delay this vote.
Sheldon certainly doesn't seem like he's taking any responsibility. This comes after he voted to confirm numerous Trump nominees. Bye Sheldon.

What kinds of dilatory moves could he have pulled?

That said, I’m not an expert on Senate rules,
