SAN MATEO, Calif. (KGO) -- Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh's roommate from Yale says he believes the second woman accusing Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct.

James Roche says he was Kavanaugh's roommate in the Fall of 1983.

"We shared a two-bedroom unit in the basement of Lawrence Hall on the Old Campus. Despite our living conditions, Brett and I did not socialize beyond the first few days of freshman year. We talked at night as freshman roommates do and I would see him as he returned from nights out with his friends," Roche said in a statement.

"It is from this experience that I concluded that although Brett was normally reserved, he was a notably heavy drinker, even by the standards of the time, and that he became aggressive and belligerent when he was very drunk. I did not observe the specific incident in question, but I do remember Brett frequently drinking excessively and becoming incoherently drunk."

1. Yet another nail in his coffin !

Run while you still can, Brett ! Never mind, it's probably already too late.

[Journeyman]

6. That's a 35 penny nail, coming all the way from 1983 -- nails don't get much bigger than that! . . .

[WillParkinson]

7. It's not a nail...

Republicans won't allow it to be a nail. Unless there are some with a spine and decency, but what's the likelihood of THAT?

11. That's not a nail! It's a smear! Yeah, that's the ticket!

A smear!

[RockRaven]

2. GOPers will dismiss or ignore that letter, and it isn't salacious enough for a lot of the media,

but in context, it is brutal, or would be to any open-minded objective observer.

[WheelWalker]

3. Blackout Brett. nt

[DesertRat]

4. Here's the full statement

5. So BK didn't think this would come out, or he forgot that he forgot

when he came in smashed and aggressive around his roommate in freshman year. What about other students, friends maybe.

[Achilleaze]

8. Damn drunken KGOP republican values suck

Have no place on the Supreme Court

[BumRushDaShow]

9. I expect he came back to the dorm room every weekend night

drunk as a skunk. And if you are rooming with someone, you can't help but notice this.

[Bayard]

10. A mean drunk

Too bad we can't ask his wife about that. Any former girlfriends, or just victims? Probably one and the same.

This gentleman is a character witness for both parties. If the Pugs can dismiss first hand experience, they will certainly ignore this.

[IronLionZion]

12. None of this nonsense was accused of any of Obama's SC appointees.

Maybe Democrats make better choices.
