Again, this is not a trial and there is no bar on hearsay. It's not any sort of legal proceeding (although witness to the Senate are under oath). The statement that "many of us heard about it at school," if true, does corroborate Ford's story. Corroborate simply means to add support to a claim.

corroborate Definition in the Cambridge English Dictionary.

Definition of CORROBORATE

corroborate | Definition of corroborate in English by Oxford Dictionaries

Suppose you say you had Thanksgiving dinner with your relatives last year. But your wife adamantly maintains you skipped out on the dinner. I have no further information. But then your work friends tell me that you went on and on the following Monday about how insufferable it was to be with your relatives for Thanksgiving dinner. That story corroborates your claim that you had Thanksgiving dinner with your relatives last year. Does it definitively prove or establish it? No. But it certainly lends support--i.e., corroborates--your account.

This person hasn't even said Ford told her about it. She said she heard about it - somewhere apparently.

So now gossip and hearsay is reliable testimony?

Makes perfect sense.

I don't know that, how do you? Your post implies she is not telling the truth.

How do you know that?

Thats the point. It doesn't have to be true and don't play naive, that was calculated in when it went public. You have successfully tagged him at worst as a possible rapist (some will even drop that qualifier) even with an extremely poor planned and fact based claim.

Do you expect the left to not play the idea that Trump and the right just confirmed a rapist to the SC come ballot time?

I'll say this and hopefully you'll understand what I'm saying. If Dr. Ford and her attorney make the rounds on the Sunday shows and fail to show up on Monday, then I think the opinions will be swayed in the direction that she's FOS.

I could see why a credible person who was reluctant to get involved in the first place wouldn’t want to get involved in this.

That said, there’s no chance that things need to be delayed again if she doesn’t show.

Same end result, but the distinction is important.

Do you all really think someone would delete their account and start another over what some posters said about them in a meaningless forum? That's funny.

Why shouldn't I believe CABVOL? The accusation seems credible and people have deleted accounts and returned with other names. OBV was a poster here but hasn't been seen in a while. It all adds up. The real question is why would you question CABVOL. #cabstoo

Clearly sarcasm is lost on you.

Let's say hypothetically that the allegation is true. Do we want to live in a country where, despite living a clean, charitable life for 30+ years, one mistake as a 17 year old kid can ruin your entire career?

There's a reason why juveniles are able to have their criminal records sealed at 18.

If K doesn't get voted in, his career will be destroyed over a random allegation, and Republicans will have a motivation to get out and vote in November.

Haven't heard an answer to this yet.

Yes, she's not doing any more media interviews because she's said everything that she recalls. Doesn't mean she wouldn't testify about what she recalls.

That's your interpretation of what she said. The media comment and the I've said all I'm going to say comments are separated by many comments. Sounds to me like she's saying shes done talking about it completely.
