Orrin Hatch came out and said that Kavanaugh told him he wasn't even at the party. No need to gild the lily if the defense is "I've never done this to this or any other women". Why assert facts that can be contested and potentially shown to be false, thereby casting doubt on your credibility?

Most non democrat type people cant name all the parties they were in attendance at during their high school years. I bet some lefties on this board can remember the 1..or none..that they were at.

I see people get mad at judges all the time. This is nothing. A real reach to say she is doing this because the judge's mother once presided over a case against her parents and issued some routine orders, and which they settled with the bank.

If this is the best you can do to assail her motive, that's not going to go very far.

given the time frame covered by the signatories we have to conclude that most grads of the school do not agree with the sentiment in the letter - after all, going to school there qualifies you to determine truth and virtually all alumnae did not sign on. Looks bad for Ford IMHO.

There's more in the HuffPo article, but most scoff at the notion of posting it merely due to source. If you're interested, Google it.

I was genuinely asking. What experiences? Experiences with Kavanaugh? Guilt by association? What experiences? And in your valued opinion, exactly what impact should their experiences--save testimony against Kavanaugh--have on the situation? Short of that, what does this help, except to muddy already muddy water?

They're trying to lend support and to verify her credibility . You know, like the letter from Kavanugh's supporters.

clearly you see the difference - one was a group of people who personally knew K. during the time of the alleged incident; one is a group of people who did not know the accuser then or do they know her now (well maybe one or 2 do).

But of course that won't stop you so I don't know why I even bothered.

Why do you insist on making this about right or left? It really involves a dispute between two people, one of whom is telling the truth, one of whom is not. Let them both testify and see how they appear and judge it based on that. People should not pre-judge the matter until they have heard her description and his denial.

Maybe she will completely crumble or just look like she is untruthful. Maybe he will. Maybe there will be witnesses who convincingly testify one way or another.

It is inherently about right vs left because of how this process was handled. It cannot be divorced from partisanship no matter how much we would like it to be.

I was referring to their seeming insistence that the timing is sufficient proof of its falsity so as to dismiss it. It is not really a debatable point but that the trauma, humiliation, and stigma associated with such events causes most to go unreported at the time, if ever.

so I imagine there were multiple parties with drinking at this high school.

the victim can't remember which party, where or when, the incident occurred.. she could easily be conflating two different situations/parties and landing on Kavanaugh as the perpetrator. the timing of the party could make a huge difference.
