The only remaining question is whether she is a victim of the smear or a party in the smear.

I am not convinced of either.

Her grandfather was a CIA director and her brother worked for the firm that became Fusion GPS... she is part of the smear. She is part of the CIA feeder school at Stanford.

I don't buy the victim meme which is why I did not like this "coddling" the Repubs gave her.

Ford will become a multi-millionaire soon with high six-figure speaking fees booked until the day she dies.

This temporal bullcrap about "exposure" is just a pinch of skin compared to what her payout will be.

Kavanaugh's life is destroyed if he does not get confirmed.

I am in the camp who believes something may have happened to this woman at some point in the past.

Where I have a clean and clear break is in two areas:

1.) Kavanaugh’s involvement: I am personally 99.8% certain he is being falsely accused. I always leave that .2% to account for deep variations possible in human behavior.

2.) Her involvement in this farce: She was a fully willing, and calculating tool in this. She used her past misfortune (if she didn’t make it up out of cloth) as a tool, did it willingly and enthusiastically, because she is a committed Leftist. Any sympathy I might have had, even a smidgen, was eradicated in me by her willingness to destroy a man to take part in achieving a purely political goal.
