Feinstein looked a bit more than disappointed last evening when she got caught fumbling around about the leak of the letter to the media. This whole charade was a cia special ops, IMHO.
So glad I caught your comment! Reminds me of a thought my beloved had last evening after the hearing... he thinks that Feinstein was deliberately holding on to the letter for future blackmail of Judge K if he was Confirmed as a Justice. He mused that even though it never happened, the accusation may have been a good Ace-in-the-hole for an important case. Kind of like whatever they had/have over Roberts where he backtracked on ObamaCare... Except... my beloved thinks even as a Justice, Judge K would have told her to stuff it and had her investigated for attempted blackmail. After seeing Judge K in action, I think he would indeed have told them what-to-do if they had held the letter as a possible blackmail tool.
