    What is he afraid of? If innocent there should be no issue as I would jump at the chance to clear a friend of mines name and tell the truth rather than go into hiding like Judge has done. Is he like Trump and afraid of a perjury trap? Perjury can only happen if one lies.

    He's past toast and is entering crouton territory.

    ...yes, because Republicans have never unnecessarily strung along a SCOTUS confirmation.

    I don't. What I do know is that the alleged incidents took place multiple decades in the past without any complaint being filed with law enforcement. I also know that there is little corroborating evidence for these stories. I also know that many people have come to Kavanaugh's defense. I also know that these allegations have been made precisely at the time that Kavanaugh is in the process of being confirmed as the latest member of SCOTUS.

    ...it's obvious the Dems are using this to their advantage but he fact that it happened long ago isn't the point...Kavanaugh has lied before and has now painted himself into a corner with his choir boy interview. This brings into question his overall character. As far as corroborating evidence, it's now a collective amount of testimony made by multiple people who've also had many people come to their defense.
    ...it will be interesting to say the least.

    It's not odd that the allegations are being made now.

    Suppose, as a hypothetical, that a few years back I'd sent you a string of hateful, extremely racist private messages. Let's also make you a minority in this hypothetical.
    You might shrug and think "well, that barfo sure is an asshole".
    Then suppose today Sly announces that he's putting me in as Race Relations Coordinator of the forum, because everyone thinks I'm the least racist person they ever met.
    Might you be inclined to say something to the contrary, even though you'd never spoken up about it before?

    I'm amazed that others don't follow this very, very, simple logic. Jesus Christ.

    The ironic thing is whoever side wins this Kavanaugh nomination the opposite party is going to be energized in the November elections
