Kavanaugh is toast … and, she’s the likely nomination.
=============
The new allegations reported in the New Yorker are likely fatal to Kavanaugh’s nomination.
They’re everything that the Ford accusations weren’t: heavy on details with specific time and place; eyewitnesses; contemporaneous word-of-mouth. See the New Yorker article for the graphic details.
I thought that Kavanaugh would survive Ford’s suspiciously-timed, gap-filled, uncorroborated charges. In fact, I thought the odds were less than 50/50 that Ford would show up to testify this week.
But, these new accusations are a game-changer.
Hard to imagine Kavanaugh surviving this onslaught. I expect that his nomination will be withdrawn.
So, let’s advance the story and anticipate the next steps…
