They have shown a willingness to smear a man in front of his 10 year old daughter, just to stop the nomination. They dig up the most unsavory and mentally deranged "witnesses" from 35 years ago to impugn him. No personal attacks were used on Merrick Garland. This is not tit for tat - this is **** for tat.

I thought Feinstein was one of the better lefties. No more. Unless you want to consider her as better than most of a really bad lot.

Anybody defending the left's tactics on this is just showing a moral depravity that subjugates decency to politics.

There’s evidence that Dems dug up Ford, and not that she came forward willingly?

Also, there was no character assasination with Gorsuch - so why would Dems start making those type of things up now?

I think you can blame Feinstein for sitting on the allegations, but that’s about it.

Nah, I have been watching the Dems, and I would be ashamed if one of my sons acted like that.

She did NOT come forth willingly. she came forth reluctantly AFTER her name was leaked to the press. She testified to that under oath.

Are you proud of the Dems?

Your argument only carries weight if you don't think Kavanaugh actually did anything wrong. If Ford is telling the truth, calling him out on it is hardly "smearing" him.

Perhaps is there is any way to answer any of the following it would rise from an uncorroborated allegation.

How did you get home? 'I don't remember.'
How did you get there? 'I don't remember.'
Where is the place? 'I don't remember.'
How many years ago was it? 'I don't know'

Further when the numbers of people change continuously, and when the specific people all named either say : 'Nothing like that I can remember' or 'It didnt happen' it tends to shade it to one way for me.

You would be correct 'if Ford is reciting events that actually happened'. I cant name a single objective piece of evidence that tends to show that predicate. Do you?

Given that review of the 'evidence' (actually the utter lack thereof, mind you) the question posed still stands: Are you proud of the Dems?

I mean you get utterly pissy when this is characterized as the 'politics of personal destruction', and get jazzed when asked that question, stated there. But again, given the review of corroborative evidence: Are you proud of the Dems?
