“Only because the Republicans questioner Mitchell flubbed everything with her stupid questioning of Ford. Thank God Lindsey Graham interceded or all could have been lost?”
Probably. But even so, I’m thinking this was the plan all along. They would humor the bitch with trivial questions, although they tripped her a couple of times (apparently) anyway, but the goal was not to make it about her, or the treatment of her - for, like it or not, there is a tribal reaction in women when they see something like that. So nothing for TV commercials, as there was with Anita Hill. Instead, they chose to BLAST the Democrats over what they, the Democrats, have done to Kavanaugh.
People know the difference. Here you have this poor woman who went through this horrific, life-damaging, experience due to the (white) MAN who was about to end up on the Supreme Court.* But for the Senators and their staffs, MUCH DIFFERENT. They are supposed to be the BEST, and never act like spoiled children...but they did, and Lindsey CALLED THEM OUT for it. While many may want to say that Republicans were too hard on this brave bitch, no one can credibly say that Republicans were too hard on the Democrats in the Senate...they’re grownups, it’s part of the game. Sorry, Leftists.
*The fact that she had the MEANS (a willing media and Democrat Party), the MOTIVE (she hates men, particularly conservative men), and the OPPORTUNITY (she had some potential linkage to Kavanaugh’s past) doesn’t mean anything, nothing at all.
Agreed. If they had of attacked Ford it would have gotten them nothing extra than what most already knew. It would have made her the star. What they got was a star in Kavanaugh. By the time he was finished all eyes were on the Dems who behaved so badly. Then Graham drove the stake into their evil hearts. I was expecting the old witch to have a heart attack right on the bench. Is that wrong of me? Not sure I care at this stage!888
