On Kavanaugh, has disgraced Dianne Feinstein finished herself off?
By Monica Showalter

As Sen. Lindsey Graham unexpectedly elevated himself to statesman during the last of the Senate hearings on Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh Thursday, Sen. Dianne Feinstein dropped herself to bottom of the barrel as a political hack.  Her performance, from start to finish, was a disgrace.  It was so bad, so loathsome, even to the left, that it's hard to think it won't cost her her Senate seat, where she is in a tight race this November.

Here was the exchange on the Senate floor just yesterday, and Fox News has a video here:

    "Only at an 11th hour, on the eve of Judge Kavanaugh's confirmation vote, did the ranking member refer the allegations to the FBI.  And then the allegations were leaked to the press.  That's where Dr. Ford was mistreated.  This is a shameful way to treat our witness, who insisted on confidentiality, and Judge Kavanaugh, who has had to address these allegations in the midst of a media circus."

    Feinstein responded to Grassley's criticism when she began her opening remarks, saying, "Yes, I did receive a letter from Dr. Ford ... the next day, I called Dr. Ford, we spoke on the phone, she reiterated that she wanted this held confidential.  And I held it confidential, up to a point where the witness was willing to come forward."

DiFi's actions need to be fully investigated and appropriate action taken!

"And I held it confidential, up to a point where the witness was willing to come forward."

With this statement, she is admitting that she is the one who leaked Ford's name. "I held it confidential up to a point" is an admission that at some time she reached a conclusion that it was time to leak.

Every R in Cali should vote for Feinstein's opponent.

No.

The press will always have the Democrats' back.  Watching our news in this country is like watching "Vremya" in the former Soviet Union.

If Feinstein can employ a Chinese spy for 20 years and then go on to destroy a federal judge I'd say Feinstein's job and position are pretty damn secure.

She's untouchable.

[jpsb]

She is in a tight reelection race. If the Rs in Cali vote for her opponent Diane is toast.

Well that would be another democrat, further left than Feinstein. He's Kevin de Leon, author of the infamous Sanctuary State bill. SB54

The bill was judged unconstitutional  a few days ago.

I say votefor the Republican, in hopes the once resspected CA GOP finds itself again.

I don't think of it as voting FOR the Republican, but voting AGAINST the Democrat.  If you could go back in time to early 1930s Germany, wouldn't you vote for anyone over a Nazi or a Communist?

Is there even a Republican -- ANY Republican -- on the ballot in the CA Senate race this year?

I was of the understanding that because of California's "jungle style" primary, the two top vote-getters were the "opposing candidates".

And that the top vote-getters were Feinstein and [phony-de] Leon.

Where does the Republican candidate come into play, and where is his/her place on the ballot?
