“I think Judge K was wrong in saying his life had been destroyed.”

In his mind, as of today, I’m sure he firmly believes his life has been destroyed. A year from now he may have a different perspective. For now, he feels what he feels.

Who knows how this might impact his marriage? And if he isn’t voted in, then his life HAS been destroyed.

Hey I think it’s sweet. But that’s funny. ;) I’ll raise a glass to you. We’ll have to do it again when Kavanaugh is voted to the Supreme Court. (And wouldn’t you love to be a fly on the wall when he has a private conversation with Clarence Thomas?)

Probably no one left on this thread but does anyone know about the redacted statement to which Kavanaugh referred earlier today re the Yale roommate, James Roche?

It doesn’t matter. It’s over.

And everyone complaining about Mitchell is dead wrong.

This entire hearing was one massive trap set for the GOP, and the Dems were desperately hoping they’d fall into one of them. Why do you think Ford’s lawyers were so upset when they heard Mitchell would be doing the questioning?

Sexist elderly men berating the “Victim”? - nope.
Questioner too tough on Ford? - nope.
Questioner too easy on Kavanaugh? - nope.
Kavanaugh brutally attacking Ford? - nope.

What you should do was exactly what they did - seem to play nice, but expose her inconsistencies gently, and allow viewers to determine that she’s disturbed and troubled ON THEIR OWN.

Then Kavanaugh aggressively defends himself while not attacking Ford directly.

Then the GOP senators take over, and accuse Ford of being an unfortunate, sad pawn in the hands of evil, corrupt Democrat politicians and lawyers, who will get into the sewer and do anything to defeat Kavanaugh.

Brilliant.

That’s why the Democrats were so gobsmacked and aimless (and looked bad) when it came time to question BK. They’d been neutered by the GOP strategy, and every stupid thing they tried to bring up (HS yearbook pages? Avenatti’s bullcrap?) validated what the GOP wanted people to think about them.

Great job today outmaneuvering the leftist freaks. Now vote!

I should not be surprised. No wonder he seemed to vanish.

It’s funny. I had just posted that she was so bad that someone needed to “get the hook” and get her out of there. Then the next question was up, and... ta da! ... Lindsey. Mitchell was horrid.

I saw Lindsey conferring with other senators during the break. Thank God they decided to take their time back from Mitchell!

Though, towards the end, I thought Mitchell made some good points. But too little, too late.

I think she was abused as a child. But not by Kavanaugh. Maybe a member of her family who because of loving him can’t remember.

No, that’s the first I’d heard it. I’d be interested but seems Kavanaugh wanted to protect this man because it wasn’t positive information. It would leak except the Dems won’t leak anything to make Kavanaugh look good so we’ll probably never know.

Right. Only leftists are allowed to look like the fighter who scraps so well.

One exception — Trump.

But not every conservative has Trump’s Twitter following.

Senator Graham, however, was able to thread the needle today — perfectly focused rage. He was amazing.

Cheers! I think we need to organize a big clink of glasses here on FR after Kavanaugh is confirmed. To his honor. Hmmm maybe with beer though. LOL. Enjoy!
