This is not going to happen at this late hour. In fact, when Sen Grassley set the calendar on this nomination, it was too late. Just the final grand stand by the Dem party on this nomination. Were the Republicans to allow this, then every District, Appeals and Supreme Court nominee that comes up while the Republicans have the Senate majority would be treated to the same gutter snipe circus.

Republicans should proceed regardless of what this women has to say. She had her chance decades ago to bring charges. There is no proof besides her testimony, which has little value without evidence. Kavanaugh should deny the accusations and keep quiet. There is nothing the Democrats can do to stop his nomination.
Outside of forensics, interviews, witnesses and facts--this is nothing to move forward with.
The timing and previous desperate attempts to damage his character is highly suspect and make this unbelievable.
Covering it up without testimony, discussions or lie detector tests make this highly suspect and unbelievable. Hiding thousands of pages of Kavanaugh's documents from the Bush days already made it highly suspect.
Rush this through now and it will ensure a higher turnout against the GOP in the November mid term elections. Helping the possibility of a #BlueWave.

So you agree that she should testify. What if Kavanaugh really did it, should he still deny and "keep quiet"? Make him testify under oath. And the witness too.
So you mean to tell me if Kavanaugh were to commit a serious crime that was discovered after the fact, that there is absolutely, positively no way in which to remove him? I highly doubt that. It may have never been done before, but I'm sure there's a process for it.
There would have to be evidence of such a crime. A women accusing him of a sexual crime that happened over three decades ago isn't proof that Kavanaugh committed a crime nor is there a history of sexual abuse. If there was any evidence, that evidence long ago was wiped out by the passage of time. This women should have reported the abuse back when she was young. It's a little too late now especially given that Kavanaugh has no history of sexual abuse unlike certain people in Hollywood who have been accused by multiple women or have paid hush money.
Brett Kavanaugh will be confirmed and the filthy liars among the Democrat ranks will be exposed for what they are. Sen. Feinstein should be ashamed of herself for putting forth such a theory in the first place.

I disagree--I'm for moving forward.
let the Dems start a blue wave if they think that they can. Dare them--double dog dare them to do it.

It won't do her any good to testify. Kavanaugh only needs to deny the charges and say nothing. He doens't have a history of sexual abuse, unlike certain Hollywood or corporate men. This will only result in he or she said, which will lead to nothing. For this women, it's too late. She should have said something about the sexual abuse if it did happened back then.
