Mitchell started on that track. She had said it’s under police jurisdiction and there are no statute of limitations. Then she asked him if he had heard from any police regarding these allegations.

OK, so how many more get to question him? Poor guy. I think they are still going to try to get him somehow.

““So, he’s not “Linda” any more?”

“They call him Mr.Graham!””

Was so glad for his outburst, but it was a little girly.
Still, someone needed to get in their to defend Kav.

This entire thing is a circus——and will be discussed for years.

“She’s just dumb as a rock.”

I agree. I’m a constituent of hers. She’s in the Senate only because of her famous last name. Her dad was an iconic columnist for a Twin Cities newspaper for decades.

If her name were Amy Wilson, she’d be at best a junior partner in some law firm in downtown Minneapolis - and nowhere close to the US Senate.

She wasn't killing anyone, but she did as much as she could in this session. She asked Judge K a series of questions that allowed him to refute Ford directly—Were you at the party? No. Did you know Dr. Ford? No. Did you have sexual contact with Dr. Ford? No?—now it's hammer time and it's the job of the Repubs to do what Graham did and keep feeding Judge K the nails.

Cory Booker?

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2018/09/21/in-1992-cory-booker-admitted-to-groping-a-high-school-classmate-and-issued-a-call-for-sexual-respect/

When he was in high school, Cory Booker, the New Jersey Democrat and possible White House contender, groped his classmate as they kissed. He reached for her breast, and when she swatted his hand away, he made another attempt.

So that leaves a very big gap in the story.

Not only gaps, but contradictions!

Ex: On one hand the experience Dr. Ford says she was subjected to, "the attempted rape", affected her her entire life. Yet, she tells the story about running into Mark Judge at Safeway a few weeks after the incident and saying "Hi" to him. Ford then goes on to describe Mark Judge's reaction to seeing her.

As someone who was once sexually abused by an individual in my childhood, I avoided contact with that person my entire life. Had I "ran" into them, I would have simply walked right past them without saying a thing. I'm pretty sure most who've experienced such a thing would also avoid the abuser to the greatest extent possible.

I’m taken by the fact that the Dems have NO faith in their own staff. Are the democrat staffers incompetent?

Grassley and Graham called out the Dems on the FBI thing (i.e. delaying the confirmation).

That said, that's all they've got.

“Is Mitchell finished? Or did they forget about her?”

They appear to have dumped that B***h who didnt seem to know what side she worked for.
