Get the distinct feeling the FBI are gonna be charged to investigate.

If Flake, Murkowski and Collins do not require an FBI investigation and sworn testimony from Judge before any possibility of their giving a "yes" vote, then their images as moderates will be revealed to be entirely fake.

It's very important that the committee ask Kavanaugh - what would YOU do if you had a potential eyewitness (Judge) to the alleged incident who was NOT being called to this inquiry, who was sitting cozy in a beach house?  Please answer that, Judge Kavanaugh, in your professional capacity.

Nah...
I dont think the Renate Dolphin yearbook incident rendered the other sigs worthless.  I think the women in his daily life NOW carry more weight.

I think it shows that Kavanaugh has friends that he never sexually assaulted.  Worthless.  News Flash: his friends support him.

ALso, Dudley, a Kav drinking buddy, saying he never saw Kav drink to blackout.  The funny thing is no one has any idea when a drunk person's consciousness goes out when they are still functioning.  passed out?  Easy to see, and I'm sure Kavanaugh did such.  Black out?  No one knows except the individual.

I recall friends calling me on a Sunday and thanking me for driving them home.  Which I would often have no recollection of.  Sometimes to the degree that I would gte out of bed cross th ehall and look out the window to make sure my car was indeed out there.  And sometimes friends would tell me about something I did that I couldn't recall.  Etc.

Very unlikely heavy young drinker Kav never blacked out.

Tuned in just before Durbin and the break.
Ford seems much more fragile than I expected.

I like how the Dem Senators all want to make a speech and then slip in a question or tow at the end of their 5 mins.

While the GOPers get announced and immediately the shift is to the female prosecutor.

It's all a bit silly/strange.

Kavanaugh is toast.

And while I’m not watching it, I’m hearing that Fox News coverage has raised the white flag.  We know how influential that will be on our “president.”

The Democrats are using this venue to do the proper thing, say this is all bullshit.

Grassley is looking like a fucking asshole.

A grumpy asshole.
The less Grassley talks, the better for the GOP, methinks.
But I guess they need/want some pushback against the DEM characterizations.  And are stuck with Grassley, as they don't want the female prosecutor to look partisan.

Chris Wallace was pissed that the first 15 minutes used by the female stand in hadnt seem to have gone anywhere

He was shot down by Baer - who said, wait a minute - there are 8 segments left

But yes, the panel felt Republicans couldnt be happy with how the beginning went.

We established her record of flying in a plane will be used to attack her credibility. Sad.
