“If you post the specific clip, I will take a look.”

Ha. It took me 15 years to be able to post an image. Video clips ... pretty sure I won’t be doing that any time soon. Maybe someone else will do it. Thanks for the offer, though!

Exactly.. it’s all for show. Judge Kavanaugh will be on the SCOTUS.

So we should sit back and enjoy the "show"?

Where have heard that before?

Watch for Kamala Harris to question Kavanaugh about his claim of high school virginity and then follow up with a question of how often he masturbated when he was young.

What the hell are you talking about?

You actually think we are going to lose the House and Senate?

I didn’t advocate shouting at the witness. I advocate never having the hearing, and voting last week. But since that didn’t happen, this is a big lose. Nothing was presented to discredit the core claim.

They needed the hearing for cover to get the votes. If some Senators weren't holding back their votes in exchange for a hearing so they could claim they she was allowed to say her piece they would have already held the vote. How hard is that to understand?

The first speech in a court case is always convincing—
until the cross-examination starts!

Graham is furious. This is going to make us stronger. And I believe they WILL take a vote tomorrow.

If Ford has anything more to say, she can file charges against Kavanaugh in the Town where it occurred....36 years ago.

I believe it was Dershowitz who said what she is claiming is stopped because of the statue of limitations.

Yes, that was cool. She is pretty stupid and it is evident.

I wish I had your confidence.

Sen Graham is a full-bird Colonel in the USAF JAG Reserve. I once worked with a Major who had been stationed with him back in ‘89 or so. Even then, my friend told me, you could see that he was “a player”. I am glad to hear that he, at least, with his prosecutorial background, is holding firm here. Its entirely possible that - given McCain’s aura - Graham followed his lead in the Senate, and that indeed he is now “freed” in a psychological sense to imprint upon another “big dog” (POTUSDJT).

Or maybe its just wishful thinking and he will go wobbly tomorrow. But I think that he is dead-on evaluating what will happen to the GOP in November if they fail to confirm Kavanaugh.

Well I certainly hope you wouldn’t vote D. So, other than a good Independent, who would you vote for?

Kavanaugh will be treated quite differently by the Democrats and they’ll all be using accusatory tones and questions.

What a sad farce.

I’m just glad Mitchell pointed out at the end and that all experts in the field agree, this is NOT the venue or format on how to interview sexual assault/abuse victims.

Honestly there should be an age cutoff to serve in the House and Senate. Nobody over 80.

If we can't have term limits for Congress, I'd like to see a law capping the maximum age of service at 65.

If they want to stay in the game after that, let them go home and run for a statewide office.
