Public Comment

In the high stakes drama, Dr. Blasey was clearly the winner. Dr. Blasey had everything to lose and nothing to gain. She waited until the very last day hoping someone other than Kavanaugh would be selected from the short list as the Supreme Court nominee terrified of the ordeal she might have to undergo. She expressed unequivocal certainty that her attempted rapist was Kavanaugh aided by the elusive Mark Judge who remains conveniently hidden from the long arm of the law. In sharp contrast, Kavanaugh was intemperate, disrespectful bombastic and filled with self-righteous indignation. 

Such poor self-control and contempt for the Senate should disqualify him from his current appointment on the U.S. Court of Appeals and most certainly from the highest court in the land. 

The heroes, other than Dr. Blasey, were the courageous women who confronted Senator Flake in the Senate elevator who implored him to reconsider his important vote. 

Finally, the Republicans betrayed their cowardice by commissioning a hired gun, Rachel Mitchell, to do their dirty work for them.
