I’m skeptical. Something will happen. Ford gets sick or wet feet at the last minute. Changing the rules at the last minute. Screaming female hordes in pink pussy caps will disrupt the proceedings. Maybe even bomb threats. Ford doesn’t want to talk under oath.
So she agrees and then lets it go on and on so as not to get the vote in. THAT is THEIR PLOY.
I would not cave anymore to these broads.
She needs to testify. And Keith Ellison should be the one asking questions for the democrats.

She’ll pull it out while questioning this woman!
From an FNC news alert...
Ford accepts request to testify about alleged Kavanaugh assault, lawyers request Thursday hearing
Note the quotes.
Snort.
She wants plenty of psychoactive drugs and a eight ball of coke.
Or to put it another way,,,, she/they did NOT accept the committees demands. They simply reissued their demands.
I don’t think Anita Hill would have gotten away with that in the internet age. Also, Republicans — for all their flaws — have had been much more politically astute and organized since the 1994 elections. They’ve actually eclipsed the Democrats in this area, in many ways.
Its a mockery of a sham.
She’ll be carefully and extensively coached/prepared.
In preparing a witness to testify, a lawyer may invite the witness to provide truthful testimony favorable to the lawyer’s client. Preparation consistent with the rule of this Section may include the following:
discussing the role of the witness and effective courtroom demeanor;
discussing the witness’s recollection and probable testimony;
revealing to the witness other testimony or evidence that will be presented and asking the witness to reconsider the witness’s recollection or recounting of events in that light;
discussing the applicability of law to the events in issue;
reviewing the factual context into which the witness’s observations or opinions will fit;
reviewing documents or other physical evidence that may be introduced; and
discussing probable lines of cross-examination that the witness should be prepared to meet.
Witness preparation may include rehearsal of testimony. A lawyer may suggest [a] choice of words that might be employed to make the witness’s meaning clear. However, a lawyer may not assist the witness to testify falsely as to a material fact.
The Commies are playing this out perfectly..question is, is Grassley going to grow a DAMN SPINE and say NO DEAL
What’s the difference between Thursday or Monday. This creature has already wasted enough of everyone’s time. Testify (or not) Monday. Vote right after.
Have they accepted her “acceptance”? They need a clarification ASAP or they need to pull the plug. The White House is right, this is just to prevent the Monday vote. This is B.S.
I think they will run with this as long as they are winning and they are winning on many fronts: budget with no wall, special prosecutor and now supreme court nominee.
the deadline was only for her lawyer to RESPOND by 2:30
That may be.
I am just always remembering when ever Bush did something clearly in the wrong- There were all these people who would try to convince us how brilliant it was. It is all part of this brilliant strategy... Don’t you see! Sometimes a turd is just a turd.
The Dems say this standoff is helping them. They point to the polls. But the polls are transitory. I think this may be motivating the GOP more than it does the Dems. The Dems were already motivated.
I hate to burst your bubble, ‘cause I know you are looking forward to a great show, but I don’t think Christine is ever going to show up. This is all about delaying so bus loads of protesters have time to get to DC to intimidate the Senate when it votes.
