All the talk right after his testimony was about how he’d saved his candidacy, but I’ve been watching CNN and MSNBC and Colbert’s excellent monologue, and I think things might be swinging back away from him.

2. The Senate republicans don't care.

They don’t care if he sexually assaulted Dr. Ford or anyone else. All they care about is getting a partisan vote on the court.

I am very pessimistic right now.

If he becomes the one who stops Kavanaugh he will be throwing away cushy opportunities as a conservative lobbiest or a position in a think tank.

He tries to come off like he has a moral compass, but at the end of the day he’s a right winger. He’s the last person the democrats should count on.

There is no doubt in my mind that while at Yale, he was a big partier, often drank to excess.," Brookes told Cuomo. "And there had to be a number of nights where he does not remember."

She went on to relate a story about the night he was tapped into his fraternity,

"He was stumbling drunk in a ridiculous costume saying really dumb things," she said, "And I can almost guarantee that there's no way that he remembers that night."

She was clearly furious, and furious about the way he used sports as the reason he could not possibly have been a heavy drinker. As Brookes said, she and another friend were starters on varsity teams and partied hard, with Brett Kavanaugh.

"There were a lot of e-mails and a lot of texts flying around about how he was lying to the Senate Judiciary Committee today."

Brett Kavanaugh is a lying liar. There is no reason to believe him when he says he didn't drink in high school, didn't use stolen emails, didn't help confirm controversial judges, didn't sexually assault Christine Blasey in 1982. There is no reason to believe him and every reason not to confirm him.
