She was also raped in college, reported it and nothing happened. Her school didn’t care and then police treated her like shit. She now hates Graham for being another one of the long line of men who have let her down over the last couple of decades. I don’t think the GOP realizes the damage they are doing to themselves today. Schools are showing this hearing. This could do more damage to them than Trump. Also from Graham: Apparently he is a complete lying piece of shit now. | ||

Did the reporters not immediately remind him about his peer Al Franken, who the Dems kicked to the curb... two months ago? Three months? | ||

Because whatever law firm she is with this is a PR disaster not only for her but for them as well. She will need to take a long ass vacation. rachel mitchell is a public prosecutor from arizona who specializing in prosecuting sex crimes. | ||

It's the obvious reason Rosenstein's meeting was pushed out. If they were able to keep Kavanaugh, it would make sense to minimize the damage they take by confirming him by flooding the media with Russia stuff. But now that they know Kavanaugh is just a bad idea, they are letting the full power of the media invalidate his nomination so that it is easier to scurry away from him. It is just about letting people down easy at this point. Graham lashing out only serves to confirm this. | ||
