“Does anyone think our spineless GOP Senators will question Mrs Ford effectively?”
Yes, I believe Lindsey Graham could and would do a very effective job questioning Mrs. Ford. Are you old enough to remember the Clinton impeachment hearing in the house? Graham was spectacular. He is a very good lawyer.
However, I think Kavanaugh did the intelligent thing by hiring a very good personal lawyer. If there is no statute of limitations in Maryland, a politically motivated district attorney could make a lot of problems for the Judge; he could potentially be facing life in prison over this. He was very smart to get a lawyer.
Kavanaugh didn’t hire a lawyer to deal with potential criminal exposure with the allegation. He needs a lawyer to walk him through the process of a Senate confirmation hearing involving a wild, unsubstantiated accusation.
After 36 plus years following an alleged “assault”, Kavanaugh could face “life in prison”? WTH are you talking about?!?
