I agree totally, she’s a basket case, a Trump Hater, an abortion radical who worked for the company that make RU486. How could they not ask her about that ???

I have no doubt that the Dems have private detectives digging into every potential SC nominee on Trump’s list of candidates. They will pull these antics on anybody, including a female. Remember when they accused Nikki Haley of having an affair with Trump? No one is off base. Trump should get a shadow list and surprise them with an unknown.

i think he can appt him during recess. i’m just not sure how long that lasts. obviously it would be better for Judge K to have the vote and get there that way. but hey, who knows, if Trump needs to, he might.

Yes, and at least half of Trump’s list for future SCOTUS judges just decided they want no part of going through this.

That could turn out to be a blessing in disguise. Only the ones with spines of steel will accept nomination. We'll end up with a SCOTUS that has much more fortitude than the one we have today.

I agree that the prosecutor did serious damage to Ford's credibility by asking her multiple questions related to events from two months ago, that she couldn't even recall. How are we supposed to trust her memories from 36 years ago if she can't remember recent things related to this case. The Prosecutor plainly showed that Ford's actions in all of this are being controlled by outside sources, and I base that on the fact that she claims she didn't know who was paying for her polygraph, or that her two lawyers were working pro bono. Somebody else is holding and controlling the purse strings. She probably knows where the money is coming from...she's just not saying.

I also found it very telling that her claims of not wanting to fly were totally shredded and shown to be lies. She claims she always more relaxed about flying when she's going on vacation. BS.

Also the fact that Ford's claims of wanting to remain anonymous were blown away. She willingly admitted that she consulted with multiple beach friends about what she should do with her info. That's not what someone who doesn't want her story or her identity to be known does. She also said she reached out to the Washington Post when reporters started showing up, and calling at her home and work place. She knew full well that giving an interview wouldn't put an end to the media inquiries, it would only increase them.

The question I have after her statements is, is she just playing at being stupid, or is she really this dumb? She claimed to be an independent woman, yet had no knowledge of things that an independent woman would be aware of.

An attorney just told it like it is....This is not a trial. It is about an employment application”....and no more.

Wasted a bunch of time showing a stupid map instead of just asking who drove her home. Of course Ford convieniently remembered nothing. IIRC Mitchell didnt even ask if she told the driver. Unbelievable incompetence.

IMO Mitchell should have asked her - sequentially in the style of Trey Gowdy - every question to which Ford is already on the record as not having an answer.

An extended string of "I don't knows" might have made an impressive sound bite.

But I'm just a lowly paralegal so what do I know.

I just want this to be over and he gets the votes.

I cannot believe all these people in the media think she was so credible. She was a floozy bimbo.

Exactly...

Dems grossly overplayed, and have managed to do something the GOP itself could or would not do...

Engage those non traditional MAGA voters...

Dems just lost any shot at taking the house... something that before this was very very likely to happen... Now, I would say, if they keep this lunacy up... and the GOP doesn’t cave and confirms Kavanaugh... GOP handily hold the house, and better than even odds gain seats.

Out of Committee tomorrow, full vote by nest week... Dems going crazy through it all and for a few more weeks as sour grapes.. keeps their crazy on full display up to the election...

After the midterms, Feinstein needs censured for her behavior in all this.

Some people with multiple multiple degrees are nut cases. Dated a guy many years Harvard undergrad and Harvard law. I went to his niece’s graduation at Havard. Then she got a phd. Then med school became a psychiatrist. Total total nut job.

How could they not ask her about that ???

Because there's no point if McConnell already has the votes.

which suggests that extra door leads to an apartment...or is so the family is not disturbed when the interns come home late...or is for the 15 yo daughter to sneak in from HER drunken parties...

The Dems are going to ask Kavanaugh the most hideous and embarrassing questions. You watch.
