Why? This is the party that elected Trump.

Love it! Hillary-supporter-who-thinks-Dems-have-jumped-the-shark here. Gotta tell you, folks, I can’t wait to watch the hearings tomorrow. Gonna get my popcorn and settle in. This is all just entertainment at this point it’s so ridiculous.

I think so. All Senators who supported Kavanaugh should be hounded out of office. Men and women.

Have any of these out of the woodwork accusers NOT messed (deleted stuff) with their online presence in the last couple of months? Or have they all been doing a little scrubbing here and there?

I remember hearing rumors of "trains" when I was in college in the mid-to-late 80's. They involved fraternity brothers and girls who would come to the parties and get very drunk. I specifically remember hearing the name of one girl who I had met during freshman year, who was allegedly a victim. Even 30-plus years later, I could identify this girl...that's how shocking and upsetting it was to me.

Although Kavanaugh tries to pass himself off as a choir boy, he was definitely a "bro". He's not fooling any of us who knew guys like that in high school and college.

Should we do an over/under on whether the nomination is withdrawn today? I bet it is. Though I don't feel super confident about it.

Omg, me too! I'm not surprised that it's a GOP either. We all know that Clinton was railroaded as were all the others.

This is disastrous for them. As I noted yesterday, if they continue down this path, it's going to be women +99 on the generic ballot. Remember, they're senators, not representatives. You might be able to survive in a kooky right wing district but statewide???

Isn't that amazing?

Lol. You have no idea how much he did or didn’t drink. This whole thing is bullshit. He’s qualified and will be confirmed.

can't believe you're a real person

I am and a woman and a Democrat who voted for Hillary. Also a lawyer. This campaign is transparently political and the allegations are drafted to be vague guilt-by-association nonsense with timing that is ridiculously and transparently politically-motivated. It’s a campaign to discredit him based on him being at parties where bad things may have happened. You are a sheep and a part of the brainless mob for believing this stuff.

Thank you. It is ludicrous.
So, what is her evidence? Dates? Witnesses? Proof?

It hasn't even hit the major news sites yet and you're discounting it because additional information hasn't been presented? I think it's pretty clear that you've already decided what you will and will not believe regardless of what is said.

The affidavit is online. What should I be waiting for? You don’t think waiting for literally the day before he testifies shows how politically motivated this campaign is? Sorry, the man was nominated long ago and has been sitting on the bench of an important court for years. This is total bullshit.

Where you just as upset about the GOP withholding 90% of his written documents? Or that they released 56,000 pages one day before the senate judiciary hearings?

Lol, really moving the goal posts aren’t we? Do you know how to argue? Do you understand logic? They released an unprecedented amount of documents. Kavanaugh has a long record so, yes, a lot of the documents were reasonably subject to the objection that they were protected by executive privilege. Once again, I’m a lawyer. The GOP objection was reasonable.

Sure, they released an unprecedented amount of documemts. But they also withheld an unprecedented amount of documents. And you may think it's reasonable, but the members on the SJC, who were also lawyers, do not.

And the one moving the goalposts is you.

Your logic:

Avenatti and Dr. Ford coming forward at the last minute?

Bullshit.
GOP releasing 56,000 pages at the last minute? T

Totally reasonable!

I said the withholding was reasonable, not the timing. In any event, docs were released over time and the fact that a portion came out the day before is not remarkable in the context of congressional hearings that you probably have zero experience (though I do). There’s been plenty of time that’s passed and I haven’t heard about anything earth shattering in those docs. You’re probably one of the idiots who was whipped into a frenzy over Hillary’s dumb emails, too. OMG they’re on Huma’s computer! Stop the presses.

There's more of your stellar logic at work. Yes, I was whipped into a frenzy over Hillary's emails, and at the same time, I am opposed to the Trump/GOP agenda. Brilliant! /s

And more goalpost moving, too.

So you basically admit that you don’t understand how congressional investigations work. Great.

I'm seeing how hypocrisy and evasion works for you.

Let me speak slowly. Reporting a vague gang rape conspiracy the day before testimony is not the same as releasing one portion of a huge body of background documents the day before a hearing.

But I thought it was the timing you had an issue with? The timing is the same. Regardless, refuting a rape accusation made 24 hours earlier is much more surmountable than reviewing 56,000 documents in the same time frame.

But go ahead and reply with some snarky baseless insult. That's your "logic."

Only Trump can withdraw him and he just doubled down on twitter. Kavanaugh can withdraw himself which I think would be wise but he doesn't seem to want to do that.
