re: #656 Hecuba’s daughter

Two things:
1. As I and others have suggested, Kavanaugh could have short-circuited this at the beginning if he confessed that when he was young he had a drinking problem and may have engaged in inappropriate actions but he is a changed man, and that he apologizes to all he may have harmed.

That’s what I don’t get about this whole thing. If they had just gone by procedure and not tried to bull their way through, Kavanaugh might have been confirmed last week and getting ready to take his seat in the new session. But by trying to run roughshod over the entire process, they’re no further along than they were two weeks ago, and now they’ve got a substantially weakened nominee. Hell, Trump’s even started to wobble in his support by handing the whole thing off to the Senate.

Owning the libs is a hell of a drug, I guess. These guys can’t resist it.
