Kavanaugh's behavior under questioning was also revealed, and it showed a judge who would lie under oath. Dr. Ford isn't trying to get on the Supreme Court; he is, but Kavanaugh supporters are also dismissing that behavior. Should a judge be rewarded for perjury now? Is that how low Republicans have stooped?
That boat has sailed. Better luck on the next Supreme Court nomination.

Manchin will be a yes. Any reason he had to hold out is gone.

While the report is designed to provide CYA for Senators to vote "yes," ironically it also provides cover to Flake, Collins and Murkowski to vote "no." They could point to the report and say it's so obviously incomplete and leaves so many questions unanswered that they have no choice but the vote "no." I'm not predicting this but it is a slim possibility.
Oh Gosh, anything is a slim possibility but what you are even suggesting is about 3% possible at best. it is pretty much over except for the actual vote. The FBI did what most suspected. They interviewed some more people, there was nothing to indicate continuing would turn up anything new. Nothing, as predicted from day one could be proven and now we have wasted a heck of a lot of tax payers $$S. Give it up and find some other cause that might help you right wingers. At least you live in the one state where you have some other left wing supporters. Thank God I got out when I did.

How about Duke Lacrosse? You remember that?
Or UVA? You remember that?
Go to the Innocence Project and review their cases so you can see the ones that didn't make it into the national news. Fact - there are some people who make up rape allegations. All signs point to Ford being one of them.

I’m registered independent but currently lean conservative (was a Democrat most of my life even voted for Obama the first time) — I will never vote for a democrat again unless they make some big time reforms.

This is my favorite of the ever evolving arguments against the man. "We've done so much vile and underhanded stuff to this guy that he couldn't possibly be impartial towards us now."

I thought Ford was full of crap from the moment I heard she wore a pu**y hat and was a member of the "resistance". Those folks see this as a war and yes they will put themselves in harm's way if it helps the cause. I just didn't think it mattered, and the #metoo and #believewomen narrative would rule the day. Hopefully after the vote it will be proven that cooler heads prevailed.
