I think a few of you are putting too much stock in whether she believes it.
After watching it, she's not really clear on what happened.

I said, "she appears to be telling the truth". I did not say that her account is factual.
The only question here is whether or not the Senators on the fence will believe her story. If they think she is more credible than Kav, they are not likely to push him through.
This he said/she said could all be avoided by getting Mark Judge and other individuals to share testimony.
So you do think her statement was factually accurate?
Really, it only matters if the Senators can get re-elected by how they vote.

I think she clearly thinks it was. I don't think she is making it up or is some kind of liberal agent playing a part.
As to the actual facts...I don't know. I do believe that BK ran with a hard partying crowd, which makes it realistic that the 2 of them were both at a small party where he was extremely intoxicated. Sometimes people make mistakes when they are extremely intoxicated. I know I have.
Most anyone who knows me today would be shocked if I told them some stories of things I/my friends did in HS. So, I don't put a lot of stock in people who are coming to BK's defense and talking about what a great man he is currently.
The issue is this specific event. The lack of addressing it directly shows a bias
So you are willing to basically convict him on an 'i don't know' list of facts? Pretty weak sauce.
She is not clear on what happened upstairs in that bedroom? If that is what you are saying, I disagree.
Except she wasn't clear on what happened in the bedroom. Her narrative was all over the place on what happened in that she remembers.
How so. She clearly explained her recollection of everything from going up the stairs to leaving the house. What was "all over the place" about her narrative?
Those who didn't believe Ford aren't going to believe her after today. Those who did believe her will continue to after today.
Those who didn't believe Kavanaugh aren't going to believe him after today. Those who did believe him will continue to after today.
Each side will find in the testimonies something to prove what they want to believe.
That is why what we see today is useless. We need a full and fair investigation.
Agree about the investigation. However, there may be some Senators who were just looking for an excuse to go against Party lines.
Maybe if Ford can remember a few things, the FBI could look into them.Kavanaugh said he is welcomes an FBI investigation. Good. Let's have one!
An investigation of an event that happened 35+ years ago, was never reported anywhere close to contemporaneously, the details of which have been stated several different ways by the person whose memory it is all based upon, and for which the 3 persons she named who could allegedly corroborate her story all denied under penalty of perjury any knowledge of said events? That makes total sense.
She was believable.
He was believable and it was powerful!
Maybe Ford was much more drunk than she has admitted to...Seems like Judge should remember the events, but maybe not if he was as drunk as Dr Ford suggested.
Strong.Found this on the Main Board:
Kavanaugh contradicting himself big time.
Claims to not be a rapist while raping Dems.
Maybe Ford was much more drunk than she has admitted to...
Therefore, we need a full and fair investigation.
