WASHINGTON — The woman who has accused Judge Brett M. Kavanaugh of sexual assault, in an apparent bid to jump-start negotiations, has told the Senate Judiciary Committee that she “would be prepared to testify next week,†so long as senators offer “terms that are fair and which ensure her safety,†according to an email her lawyers sent to committee staff members.In the email, obtained by The New York Times, the lawyer for Christine Blasey Ford said that testifying Monday — the timetable Republicans have set for a hearing — “is not possible and the Committee’s insistence that it occur then is arbitrary in any event.†The lawyer reiterated that it is Dr. Blasey’s “strong preference†that “a full investigation†occur before her testimony — wording that stopped short of demanding an F.B.I. probe and suggested she is open to testifying without one.
Now with more poll goodness. @Sanguine

"navigate the hearing"?
Line coach. She needs a lot of rehearsal time with an acting coach. Must stay on script and sound convincing.
GOP got played again.
They always do....I really expect Kavanaugh to withdraw...I feel so sorry for this man.
Kavanagh is fighting back. I hope he doesn't withdraw.
Did Clarence Thomas withdraw? Hell no. He fought and called the ass holes trying to "lynch" him what they were.
