I'm now living with the non-zero chance that he will whip it out to prove her wrong. Probably on that stupid Presidential alert so we all get it.
But that would likely prove her right, wouldn't it?

I suspect we'll get a "fake pubes" picture instead.

I am guessing that has nothing to do with the cooler.

I imagine that both the Nintendo and Yeti marketing/crisis people are meeting right now.

My recollection was there were not just the kind of ugly comments being made now about Prof. Ford, but that there continued to be attacks on her for years afterwards, including by Clarence Thomas in a book he wrote.

But that is my unaided recollection, counselor, and if you'd like a better answer, I'd recommend to you a program called "google".

Seriously? She was smeared as nutty and slutty.

This is how they did it, as told by one of the people who did it.

She was famously tagged as being “a little bit nutty and a little bit slutty” in (IIRC) American Spectator magazine by David Brock. So, I’d say yes.

ETA: Too slow, Not Bob, too slow.

We really ought to call the next board, if we make it that far, "Nutty and Slutty". I think we'd wear that sobriquet well.

I've read and seen many things that I later regretted seeing and reading. This article ranks at the top of them, including ISIS videos and car accidents I've passed on the highway.

This is war. This is how it’s done. Unless you can tell me how delay benefits the effort to tank this guy, I think she needs to be on a plane to DC. If he’s there and she isn’t, opposition loses loses Flake, Corker, and any hope of anti-Trump GOP cooperation. Which the Ds need here.

Why are we supposed to be convinced that you have any credibility in predicting the future when you can't even get the past right?

You aren’t. If the logic isn’t compelling, ignore me.
