On Tuesday morning, Brett Kavanaugh accuser Christine Blasey Ford's expected testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee was being called the most-anticipated event in Washington in decades. By Tuesday night, the whole thing appeared to be off.
Through it all, as Democrats scrambled and re-calibrated their position, Kavanaugh appeared extraordinarily confident.
Ford says that in 1982, when she was 15, a drunken 17-year-old Kavanaugh forced her onto a bed, tried to undress her, and covered her mouth with his hand at a high school party.
Ford revealed her identity in a Washington Post article Sunday. Democrats immediately began calling on Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, to schedule a hearing. Early Monday morning, Ford lawyer Debra Katz told CNN that Ford would appear if asked.
"Will your client, Christine Ford, be willing to testify in public to the Judiciary Committee?" asked anchor Alisyn Camerota.
"The answer is yes," said Katz.
Calls grew through the day for Grassley to agree to a hearing. Late Monday afternoon, the chairman said yes. Committee rules call for a week's notice for hearings, so Grassley said the panel would meet next Monday, Sept. 24, to hear from Ford and Kavanaugh.

Her credibility looks shaky now at best. Bad move to speak up then bow out.

She remembers now. It was James Carville tried to assault her.
If the Republicans have any spine at all, they'll tell her it's too late. She was given an opportunity to testify, and turned it down. It's time to go forward and vote and Judge Kavanaugh's confirmation.
Judiciary Committee vote today, full Senate vote tomorrow. Grow some cajones, Establishment RINO Ruling Class d-bags.
And Bill Clinton was there, too, saying, "Go baby."
Everyone - males and females - remember when they were in high school. This woman has not accused K. of touching her anywhere that is inappropriate. If it had actually happened, it would not be anything that a resonable person would consider to be “sexual assault” anyway. It is the most ridiculous thing that the dems have come up with so far, and why our idiot republicans are giving this anything other that what it transparently is, is also ridiculous.
Using talk to text while driving to work. Thanks for fixing it for me.lolol.
Teen Party Girl = High School Whore
The link is so ad polluted, it won’t load
The pressure needs to be on Joe Donnelly, Heidi Heitkamp and Joe Manchin. Are they going to be part of the dirty tricks of fellow Democrats or are they going to vote for someone they know is qualified.
Whoever scripted this out in the beginning for Soros and Feinstein’s crew....made a 3rd-rate soap opera with zero facts to substantiated. Whatever professional career that she’d carved out....is finished. I’m not even sure that Feinstein can win in November anymore.
I would not be surprised if Ms Blasey Smith was very trampy in high school.
Well .......Yes
I would argue Ford is well paid for her lies and services
How many times will they use the same dirty trick? As long as it keeps working. This time there needs to be serious consequences. DiFi is a pretty good place to start dishing them out.
