This sleuth is overthinking things.

I have to give props to Feinstein. She orchestrated this perfectly so far. They may very well pull this off, particularly if Flake and Corker decide it's payback time for Trump.
I always worry when I agree with you, but if you give me the kind of staff and the kind of roladexes these people have, of course I'll get 65 people corralled on short notice to say just about anything. Or just give me a network of determined women. What I wouldn't be able to do, though is vet all 65 to be sure I was comfortable they were strong witnesses. Two politico reporters are going through and calling the names to see who stands by their letter now. Two yeses, two no comments, and a couple dozen not available so far. But see this thread for a good set of thoughts on this: https://twitter.com/nancyleong/statu...98079550787584
