MSNBC is alleging that Kavanaugh sexually assaulted a schoolmate as a high school student and said victim is alleging incriminating evidence. If this claim is true, should Kavanaugh be sent to the Big House instead of the Big Chair?
How much would you be willing to wager that within a few weeks, as the investigation for these charges are about to open, Kavanaugh suddenly realizes he needs to start spending more time with his family and thus must respectfully decline the nomination? I would be willing to bet everything in my checkbook.
Who said it was a woman? My money is on Neil Gorsuch.
I know I say i'm independent but I swear, this B.S. is gonna turn me Republican. I'm against assault of any kind, especially of women and children, but she comes forward with this after 40 years? Really? It's for nothing but political reasons and it makes a mockery of all those women who really do live with the ghost of past abuse. She contacted Feinstein with this info, right? 'nuff said.

The Supreme Court in a 8 to 1 decision ruled in 1998 that state and federal governments may ban the use of polygraph evidence in court, declaring that doubts and uncertainties remain about the accuracy of the so-called lie-detector tests.
Close to 30 states, including Maryland and Virginia, ban polygraph evidence, and some legal experts said this decision may prompt the states that do not have outright prohibitions on polygraphs to consider imposing them.
The great thing about this is this is the Kobayashi Maru test for Republicans. This is truly a no win scenario. If this woman testifies and the American public find her story credible and convincing, if McConnell decides to ram Kavanaugh through anyway, the Supreme Court would be completely delegitimized forever in the eyes of the American people and they might well lose the Senate if there is enough of a backlash from women. If they slink back from the abyss with their tail between their legs and either withdraw Kavanaugh or vote him down, Conservatives will be so outraged that they sit out the Midterms and what was looking like a Blue Wave becomes a Red Wedding and almost every single Republican Senator goes down. I personally hope Kavanaugh goes through. First it destroys the legitimacy of the Supreme Court and second with all the evidence coming out it should not be too hard to impeach him when the Democrats retake the Senate.
