This sounds like a complete sandbagging...of the Democrats and media.

This is not a speech that was written just this morning.  She clearly knew what she was doing all along.  McConnell sandbagged the Dems with Collins' vote to get the whole country to tune in and hear a very strong endorsement of Kavanaugh from a woman.  Absolutely brilliant.

And to all those who say "better a Democrat than a RINO like Collins", well, she's strapped one on and is giving it to you guys hard.

I think her speech is fine.  Her words are clear.

 :thumbsup:

Presumption of innocence, sounding like Yes. I think her speech is okay as well.

She knows how to play for the cameras!  That's for sure.

Believes Ford is a "survivor of sexual assault"... but no corroborations of witnesses...

I'm glad she is coming on like that but I simply cannot listen to her.  I will read it lately, but it's looking good for the good guys.

One witness testified he didn't even know Ford.

Alarmed and concerned that the Senate is condoning sexual assault unless the Judge is rejected...
