Fake Background Investigation

Very limited investigation, "Witch hunt! No corroboration! Innocent until proven guilty! Disgraceful Democrats!"

Mitch McConnell doing the faux rage and outrage, again.

"Politics of personal destruction!"

Lisa M and Jeff F are echoing the "No corroboration" line.

Not clear whether that's good enough for them.

Not good enough for me.

How much corroboration would you expect for an event nearly forty years in the past?

On each side of the aisle some are now saying this controversy, whatever the outcome, will so excite the GOP base that they will turn out in such numbers as to nullify the blue wave, or even create a red one.

And as to the outcome, there is little - though some - doubt now that a mean drunk and entitled frat boy who bullied women and is credibly accused of sexual assault will be appointed to the Supreme Court, where he will, energized by rage, spend decades helping to inscribe radical right wing constitutional dogmas into law.
