How do you establish a baseline on a polygraph with just two questions? I’m no expert but unless you get her to lie at some point intentionally to get a reading how would you know what to compare any other answers against as the truth or a lie?

she did - Ford offered it’s a 20min ride to parent’s house from country club during the map segment and Mitchell had Ford acknowledge that someone drove her home. Who the someone was, was interrupted by the Dems claiming their time

"It is almost always the little details that make or break a case—particularly where there are no unbiased witnesses to the ultimate issue. It sounds, from many comments that Professor Ford was metaphorically “hog tied.”"

Except this isn't a case, this is a media show trial. Little details get lost. Dems present crying rape victim, GOP presents dishonesty about willingness to fly. Which do you think wins?

And a crying Dr. Ford would help how? I think it was intentional to tiptoe around questions that would allow her to be emotional and defensive.

I loved how Mitchell hooked that bitch Harris on the recommended type of questioning!

Miss Mitchell already got her on the record for several things the committee staff knows knows are false that will be be proven later.

While I appreciate all the comments from the arm-chair lawyers, very few of the comments come from Freepers who have actually tried a case, cross-examined a witness, or even witnessed a real trial. I often tell jurors during the selection process and opening statement, that "real trials are not like what they may have seen on TV, Perry Mason moments are rare, and the some of the evidence that you will hear may not make sense until after all the evidence is in and the lawyers are summing up their case during closing arguments. Let's hope that Mitchell's closing arguments show all the lies and inconsistencies.

Maybe I’m crazy but I wanted to know what color the one piece bathing suit was and if she burned it. I understand victims do that. It was so carefully recorded in her brain that it was a one piece she had to remember this.

She was absolutely horrible. I thought at the beginning, this is good, she’s being nice to this clear liar, relaxing her and then will start asking tough questions, like the one you suggested.. She coddled her all the way through... How the hell did she not force her to name Chris Garrett, not ask her what kind of relationship they had, was sex involved, why did they break up, who broke up, if it was him dumping her. etc...

“Actually, without signed/swornd affidavits, police reports, sworn witnesses, etc. this thing should never been give the light of day.”

Precisely, and it’s crap that this that led to me leaving the R (Uni) party 11 years ago.

Too bad we don’t have any lip-reading FReepers. It might’ve come in handy with the SJL/attorney exchange. Also when Ford covered the mic to confer with attorney.

“”Dr. Ford holds a PHD in Psychology. Even if she wasn’t a real victim of a sexual assault she is still an expert on everything a victim would do, react, recall, and anything else pertaining to this trauma. She could put on a very believable act.””

Sad to say......... EVERY Woman I’ve ever met that’s deep into Psychology is deeply messed up.

If Kav is voted in, the GOP will hold the House and gain in the Senate because it will show the base that the Pubs have stones.

If, OTOH, the Pubs wimp out, they will lose control of the House and possibly the Senate.

No one asked why she didn’t get Leland out of there. Would have been interesting to hear her reason.
