Is this the third roommate that was odd man out? If so, his allegations have already been addressed in regard to his extreme dislike of the third roommate.

That may be true but it was better for him to bring it up. He was probably emphasizing the point to acknowledge that he did go to excess occasionally. It still doesn't mean he sexually assaulted anyone.

I have abused alchy in my days but never assaulted any woman. Now, I'm a teetotaler. I have been for 43 years.

Ludington is a professor at North Carolina State and in a major exercise in projection is apparently obsessed with alcohol. This is his faculty bio page: https://history.ncsu.edu/people/faculty_staff/ccluding

Just to give you an idea, here are his seven most recent published essays:

Published Essays

“United Kingdom: Taxes, Prejudices, and a Volatile Love of Wine,” in Kym Anderson and Vicente Pinilla, eds., Wine’s Evolving Globalization: Comparative Histories of the Old and New Worlds (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2018)

“The Politics of Wine in Eighteenth-Century England,” History Today 63:7 (July 2013), cover and 42-48.

“Drinking for Approval: Wine and the British Court from George III to Victoria and Albert,” in Danielle de Vooght, ed., Royal Taste (Farnham: Ashgate, 2011), 57-86.

“‘Claret is the Liquor for boys: Port for Men’: How Port Became the Englishman’s Wine, c. 1750-1800,” Journal of British Studies 48:2 (April, 2009), 364-90.

“To the king o’er the water”: Scottishness and claret, c. 1660-1763,” in Mack Holt, ed., Alcohol: A Social and Cultural History (Oxford: Berg Press, 2006), 164-84.

“‘Be sometimes to your country true’: The politics of wine in England, 1660-1714,” in Adam Smyth, ed., A Pleasing Sinne: Drink and Conviviality in Early Modern England (Woodbridge, Suffolk: Boydell and Brewer, 2004), 89-106.

“A good and most particular taste: The consumption and meaning of luxury claret in early-eighteenth century England, 1702-1730s” in A. Lynn Martin and Barbara Santich, eds., Culinary History (Brompton: East Street, 2004), 77-86.

Hmm, I sense a pattern and smell a rat, or should that be RAT.

“Ludington said Kavanaugh during the hearing downplayed the “degree and frequency” of his drinking. He told the Times that the FBI has asked him to share his story at the bureau’s Raleigh, N.C., office on Monday.”

Sounds like FBI is going to be talking to him.

They are not going to investigate beer drinking. That has already been said.

That’s OK...Kav admitted he drank beer; he admitted falling asleep when he was high.

He told them he STILL drinks beer, and even that he “LIKES BEER”.

So, other than the media trying to beat a broken drum, what has this got to do with anything?

Must be getting hot over in the dems corner.

Let’s investigate Chad Luddington. (Frankly, that sounds like an alias).

No but word on Twitter is James Roche & Kit Winter (Yale roommates) both want to talk to FBI about his drinking. I knew it!! This is their next smear tactic to delay and if FBI refuses, they’ll scream.
The RATs will stop at nothing,

Does it matter if Flake, Collins and Murkowski vote no?

That’s all that matters now.

And there we get to the nub of the matter!

What the Dems are doing is playing off the old stereotype of drunkard Irish Catholic.

I'm probably nuts - but follow me:

This YouTube video asks the question of who the lady was behind and to the left of Christine Ford at the hearing:

Lisa Banks Is the Woman Sitting Behind Christine Ford

She has been identified as attorney Lisa Banks:

Lisa Banks

In my mind - the lady at the hearing doesn't really look the same. She looks more like:

Lisa Ford

Notice the hair and the cheekbones.

Why is this interesting?

Because Lisa Ford and Chad Ludington both work in the history department at Harvard.

Again, I'm probably wrong - but I throw it out there...

Left wing media types that write this are probably the ones that never got invited to the fun parties and they are getting their revenge. Same with that Maizie woman. Probably never got invited anywhere cause no one liked her.
