This could backfire against the Democrats.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Only if the GOP starts playing hardball.
Vote tomorrow.
Do they ever ask a follow up question?
You know, like WHY do you believe the accusations?
That would tell us more. My bet, the response would be “where there’s smoke, there’s fire” or some other inane reason.
Grassley is an old fool who is way over his head and does not have a clue what needs to be done. He is going to screw this up, bet on it.
Contrary to other reports.
they had to give enough opportunity for the crazy woman to speak so that it was clear they’d bent over backward to accommodate here.
That said, I think there are a lot of women out there who look at this as mothers and sisters or wives and wonder if this could be used against their sons, brothers and husbands.... Also, just about every woman I know has a female acquaintance that they know is crazy and they watch out for when they are around.. Ford strikes that same chord
Has Ford already started the cross-county auto trip?
Yes, if Grassley had a brain he would tell Ford the offer remains on the table to testify but that the vote will take place tomorrow anyway. But that would require something Grassley does not have, balls!
he already did screw this up....he seems like an old fashion honorable man playing politics like in 1958
Hope you're right, but liberal women would never make such an interpretation. They are in lockstep on everything.
The plan is still being implemented that was formulated when he was first nominated. Ford’s story was falling apart, though not widely reported yet, so the news of the new woman was timed to come out to overshadow that and demonstrate a “pattern of behavior” of sexual assault. It isn’t relevant if it a true or not - the narrative is what counts to turn opposing Kavanaugh into a political asset rather than a liability. With the help of the media, they may just succeed - this now gives every Democrat running in red states the cover they need to unanimously oppose the nomination. Collins, Murkowski, Flake, and Corker now will likely oppose. And obviously, if this wasn’t political and the goal was to keep a bad nominee off the court, this would have been brought up at the start of the nomination process to allow for another nominee to be named.
This is what was going to be done to any male nominee that was named. This SCOTUS seat cannot be filled by a conservative - and naming a man gave them the best ammunition possible to end the nomination and stop the seat from being filled. If we were to hold on to the Senate, this is ultimately academic as far as the seat being filled by a conservative, but the Dems seem to be confidant they can win the Senate so going all out to destroy Brett Kavanaugh is the plan to successfully seize control of the judiciary.
25% will say to a pollster they believe it.
2.5%, tops, actually believe it.
The new accuser should not be conflated with the first one. She is more credible and unless the GOP comes up with a strategy and quick, Kavanaugh is going to get Roy Moore’d. They are all going to pile on and the second accuser is probably the lynchpin since she seems like a nice lady who works in a domestic violence shelter. I think you can look to Roy Moore to see what will happen here if the GOP doesn’t learn to start playing hardball with the Democrats and not just with their own base.
We have, on this date, confirmed Mr. Brett Kavanaugh to be an Associate Justice on the Supreme Court of the United States of America.
In consideration of your claim, we are sending you a pass for two free days at Disneyland with all rides and snacks provided.
Sincerely,
Chuck Grassley, US Senator

The letter is lame as ever.
Judges are not ELECTED to the SCOTUS so that really deosn't matter.
SMH
Many Democrats are legend for their lecherous behavior but it did not affect the performance of their political responsibilities.
It is only conservatives that are held to a higher standard, because we claim to be more respectable.
What next? “Anonymous woman says she witnessed Kavanaugh looking at the cover of a Penthouse Magazine when he was searching for a Sports Illustrated in a bookstore somewhere in the United States sometime in the 1980’s. Woman claims delayed PTSD because of it and demands the FBI, DOJ, and any other agency controlled by deep state Trump haters to investigate. Yes I made this up, but is it any more far fetched than what has already been claimed? The democrats have lost all sense of decency, if they ever really had any.
Yet the Pubes continue to grovel.
