    Ford believes Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her. Kavanaugh believes he didn't. Only one has any corroborating evidence for their claims, and it isn't Ford.

    Doesn't matter. Women will believe her.

    The republicans should have callously dumped him and moved to plan B while working to clear him behind the scenes.
    I don't think he's helping himself here because I'm someone who completely believes him and feels very bad for him yet I'm finding his display off-putting and pitiful.
    Yes, evidence matters. All Ford's named witnesses denied the party happened, or even know Kavanaugh. Signed statements under penalty of felony. What does Ford have?
    Democrats on the Committee

    So far, Democrats have established, beyond any doubt, that a 17 year old boy drank beer and had vulgar humor 35 years ago.

    They are going for felony MIP.

    Brett Kavanaugh is so earnest and powerful that the Democrats are trying to convince him that he's an alcoholic.

    They have nothing.

    I'd respect him more if he was an alcoholic.

    Kavanaugh's hard-working, busted my butt routine isn't working IMO. That's not the issue. The issue is his temperament for the bench today.

    Hatch says "this man is not a monster." I think that's the point that the circus is missing. He also called Avanetti a "Porn Star Lawyer."

    Hatch is funny.

    If I was McConnell I would have cut bait by now. Either way this shit-show goes, it's increasingly likely to cost the GOP control of the Senate.

    Hatch is good. Graham isn't. He reminds me of Senator Geary before Michael showed him who he was.

    Like Anita Hill she failed to deliver. It was over when she wouldn't fly, she just wouldn't, Except for all the times she does. Then Grassley waved the sworn affadavits under penalty of a felony of her 4 "witnesses" denying it and the game was over

    The dude, like Thomas, was just some angry theater for the masses.

    The fact the dems still want to delay the vote lets you know what they think

    If they had killed him we would be voting now

    Grassley is screaming for the kids to get off his lawn!!!!!!

    This is over. He's on.

    Disagree. Women are going to turn the 2018 midterms. One way or the other.

    Another funny is Liz Swisher, MD at UW saying "I know he was a sloppy drunk because I drank with him." Um, Dr. Swisher, I have to ask: If you were drunk, how is your memory reliable? Kind of a dumb thing for a doctor to say? No?

    Women went for Trump

    This is about who gets the base out. The democrats got both out today

    The GOP congress was going to go quietly to defeat. Now the GOP base is as angry as Kavs

    Blumenthal didn't do well. He came off weak and he let Kavs (I like to call him Kavs) control the conversation. Kavs won that one.

    Blumenthal should have told Kavanaugh that due his time spent deep in the shit in "Nam" where he assaulted plenty of zipper-heads and gooks, he knows Kav is lying.

    Her polygraph test was a joke. Complete utter foolishness. Two questions and they were not specific. Polygraph tests require specific single subject questions.
    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

    you clearly know nothing about polygraphs

    The SOP is to ask the examinee a bunch of questions that are obvious "yes" or "no" questions that are irrelevant to the topic.

    Then the polygrapher asks a VERY LIMITED number of questions, usually no more than 2-4... and the polygraph will hit or not hit on "deceptive response."

    Too many questions and the machine will start hitting or not hitting on every question.
    He only asked two. They were about the written story line prepared while the examiner was not in the room. It was heavily changed, scribbled and had parts inserted and redacted.

    "The interviewer asked Ford whether “any part” of her statement was false or whether she made up any detail included in her initial report."

    Funny experts think this isn't a valid poly. But please enlighten me.
    who?
    https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/experts-doubt-claim-of-truthful-polygraph-result-from-kavanaugh-accuser

    https://legalinsurrection.com/2018/09/report-ford-polygraph-expert-says-victims-like-ford-you-believe-them-dont-ask-specific-questions/
    That first story is entirely accurate and does not support your assertion. The second story you link is much more slanted but still does not support your assertion.

    As I've said, all a poly does is tell you whether a subject is being "deceptive" or "evasive," which is pretty much what the first story says. Also, polygraphs aren't admissible in court, for the very good reason that they have to be interpreted and that interpretation is subjective.

    Smart defense attorneys have ex-FBI, CID, or NCIS polygraphers on speed dial, because the investigative poly will almost invariably come along with the polygrapher, who also tends to be the best interrogator in the office (funny how that works).

    Of course, while the poly isn't admissible, anything the accused says *is.* Which is the real reason for the season in terms of polygraphs.

    Been through it for work. Two questions would have been nice.
