The more interesting part is that she says she has had reporters call her as far back as this summer. The reporters asked leading questions, trying to get her to say something negative about Kav or his friends.
Didn't Trump publish a list of his SCOTUS short list, back before the 2016 election? The opposition has been working on this for a very long time.Quote:

I don't think we're going to hear much more about that story because there's nothing to it. The woman can't remember what happened, and has admitted that. She literally said that she was incredibly drunk, and that she remembers someone making the hip motion of pulling up pants. She isn't sure it was Kavanaugh, and she doesn't remember what happened prior to the hip motion. The other people who were there said nothing happened. The couple of people who corroborated the "story" are third-hand at best. Her best friend says she's never heard this story.tsuag10 said:
Rush just had a caller that was at Yale the same time as Kav. She says she knew who he was but didn't really know him well. She said she was in a similar group of friends as he was, and there were about 120 people in that circle. Says she never heard or saw anything like what is being accused.

I think he's been holding Barrett in reserve in case he gets to nominate Ginsberg's replacement.PanzerAggie06 said:
If Trump gets another chance I'd bet a months pay (not really) that the nominee is a woman. At the very least it negates the sexual harassment narrative. Not that it takes a Rhodes Scholar to figure out what play the Dems will pull out of their playbook to oppose her...racism.

You can bet right now they have something on Barrett ready to roll out.

If he's got anything (I don't believe he does), he'll come out with it tomorrow night to try to get a delay on Thursday's hearing.
This guy running for POTUS is laughable.tsuag10 said:
As much as I hate to say it, Avenatti is like the "Trump" of the Left. Sleazyness is already assumed, so there's not a whole lot of damage you can do to him. Don't count him out in 2020. He won't win, but I don't think he's going away.
I don't take anything for granted anymore. Look at how hard everyone laughed at Trump. Anything is possible in politics these days.mugwurt said:This guy running for POTUS is laughable.tsuag10 said:

Trump had a global brand that spanned decades. Avenatti's fame has been representing a porn star. No, this lunatic will not remotely sniff the presidency.tsuag10 said:I don't take anything for granted anymore. Look at how hard everyone laughed at Trump.

Kavanaugh coming out and saying he was a virgin throughout high school and college is a major move IMO. If the Dems can't find a single person to refute this, it is a major black eye in this circus. Surely if he's made such harsh advancements there is ONE gal that he actually made it home with.

Feinstein: Dogma and law are two different things. And, I think whatever a religion is, it has its own dogma. The law is totally different. And I think in your case, professor, when you read your speeches, the conclusion one draws is that the dogma lives loudly within you, and that's of concern when you come to big issues that large numbers of people have fought for, for years in this country. . . . You would be a no vote on Roe.

Well when is his big witness coming forward? Where is the big allegation that is going to bring down BK?
Oh, I agree that he will not even get the nomination. I'm simply saying he will probably have a good run until the primary unless there is some sort of meltdown between now and then.WelchAg said:Trump had a global brand that spanned decades.

This is already being countered by stating that being a virgin doesn't prevent you from engaging in aggressive sexual behavior/assault (threats of sexual violence, flashing, groping, etc).Quote:

But in reality, if a woman wanted (or was convinced) to make an allegation that she had sex with him back then, what kind of proof (for either side) would possibly exist? It is still just a he-said/she-said situation.
That is the whole issue with all of this - there is never any proof. Just allegations. And these days, liberals treat that as proof when it suits them, and dismiss it when it doesn't.
