Kavanaugh looks nervous as fuck. 

If he did do this or honestly doesn't remember this happening, if he would have come out and said I did it, I drank too much and behaved in a manner I"m not proud of and regret it to this day. He would be confirmed no problem.

Yes. Well he didn't support them but he believed that it was within the rights of States to impose poll taxes.

Which may well have been a fully appropriate legal position.  I don't remember this and am not going to get dragged into a legal debate on the point, since it has absolutely nothing to do with Kavanaugh's nomination hearing.

Yep. He shouldn’t be because we should take sexual assault much more seriously but if he did that Republicans would vote him up as soon as he finished the sentence

yeah, that was a pretty stupid comment for him to make. 

Not excusing his behavior, but the dude is trying to get re-elected from what amounts to Trumpville and re-election imminent.  Playing both sides is dangerous, but his political career is sunk if he doesn't bitch out like this.

not even in wildest dreams could he have envisioned that his antics at age 15 or 16 would become global news.  What a surreal existence he must be feeling for the last few weeks.

His political career should be over for even suggesting that

6 Republicans voted no.

Yup.  And lest people say the Dems would have blocked any conservative: Scalia sailed through barely a year before.

honestly, it is this easy. "i don't remember the incident in question, but i did have a bit of a wild streak in high school. i apologize for anything i did, and for dr ford's feelings in this matter. what she said i did seems to have caused long term pain for her, and i regret that i had that impression on her. i've subsequently learned that being an immature high school student would not advance my collegiate or professional goals."

fin. supreme court justice kavanaugh.

This is already going poorly for him. Yelling isn't gonna help.

He knows he's not getting confirmed, so this is his parting shot on live TV.

 

Not a good look.

He and his buddies shouldn’t have documented their antics in their fucking yearbooks.

THIS IS MY STATEMENT.  I WROTE IT. ALL THESE WORDS ARE MINE.  ATTEMPT NO MORE DELAYS OF MY CONFIRMATION.

this is not going to work.

calling the confirmation process a "national disgrace" is going to leave a mark. just not where he thinks.
