Fords carefully rehearsed presentation before the committee also backfired. Her fabricated fear of flying was used to gain time to stage her appearance, conduct a phony polygraph test and gin up the media and Soros paid stooges to protest. I found her performance pathetic....the baby doll voice, the tousled hair and nerd glasses hardly gave one the impression of a PhD professor. Imagine sitting in her classes listening to that baby doll voice. Her story also was full of holes and even the much vaunted FBI investigation that was supposed to damn Kavanaugh turned up nothing. Ford was a willing tool of the left and will likely get a big pay off through a phony book deal and eternal sainthood in the pantheon of leftists victims.
Agree on all points. What saved us was that Justice Kavanaugh was a Bushie judge and Bush family favorite. He worked at the Bush White House for a few years. Then got nominated to the DC circuit courts by GW Bush.
Judge-Justice Kavanaugh then moved away from Bush era cave ins (probably pugnaciously inspired by DJT) and made his case to the American people as more than 100 million watched on TV and smart phones
