What exactly about his temperament prohibited him from being on the bench?
No, he lashed out at Hillary Clinton, claiming some sort of left wing conspiracy. And he lashed out at Klobuchar. He acted like a middle schooler, deflecting when asked questions that should rightfully have been asked. Instead he blubbered out about his church going and his hard work and playing sports. So no, he doesn't have the mien or the temperament to serve on the bench. Is he going to recuse himself every time there is a Democratic issue coming before the Supreme Court? He sure as hell should.

After Kagan refused to recuse herself from the ACA decision, when she helped write the legislation, there is really no reason for anyone to ever recuse again.

Please do NOT take my criticism of the Democratic party to be approval of the Republican party. It's not.

I'm a registered Dem who has voted Republican from time to time on various levels - and I did vote against Hillary. I'm also moderate - once more liberal but have moved more toward the center. But even when I was more liberal, I didn't agree with everything the Dems were touting - I doubt many voters do, regardless of their party.

I'm far harsher on Dems because I expect more from them. I want this nonsense to stop so badly because it's lunacy.

We've sunken so much that we've lowered the bar to an extent where a politician can do just about anything and the masses in his or her party won't criticize it because they're party loyal. This is why we get the dregs representing us - because we, the people, are not demanding better or expecting more from them. We justify what they do and bash the other guy instead.

It sickens me that anyone on either side of the aisle can be slandered through lies, and then the beating continues once the liar herself admits she lied. Whatever happened to judging and castigating a person for trying to ruin a person's career? This could have ruined his marriage. What would his children and the rest of his family have thought? Why is the focus still on him - a victim - instead of the egregious thing she did?

If that's not morally corrupt and insane - I don't know what is.

Temperament? LMAO Because he got upset over the fake story of rape? The media made that out to be a big deal and the left fell for it.
It's always about policy.

What he sounds like is a Kennedy Democrat - just like I am. We don't believe all the PC BS. The socialist talking points and letting our country be overrun by people who don't want to follow the process and follow the laws. Doesn't make us Republicans - it makes us responsible Democrats w2ho don't follow the crazy rhetoric of the party today.

You don’t see a pattern of BS here? All these women and zero corroborating evidence? Not one credible witness to these so called assaults? Please name one “ real “ victim and the proof.

Ah yes............slander and sling crap (also known as blatant lies). And then when the victim gets upset, say he doesn't "HAVE THE TEMPERAMENT". This is right out of Alinsky tactics 101.

People see through it.
