So, your bluster aside will he or won't he?
We he or won't be be confirmed?
I dunno. There are rumblings of more accusers, but I have no idea if they will materialize.
Looks like she will talk to the committee. They are trying not to talk to Mark Judge, but he's a joker in this. Absent other accusations or some concrete evidence to confirm the party/event, it will come down to how each comports themselves in the interview.
DKE Kav is already a poor candidate and did not have an easy time when he was confirmed for his current position. The Whelan schtick could also bite them all in butt. Whalen was doing oppo for Kav/GOP on Kav and found Ford before she went public. What else did Whelan find on Kav and why did he make up that stupid story?
If Kav (or Grassley et al) knew Whelan was floating that crap, it's awkward. And that they felt the need to make up something like that is weird. Kav has completely denied the party existed or he knew Ford (according to reports - I've not seen a direct interview.)
But really it comes down to numbers. I doubt Collins or Murkowski will seriously jeopardize their popularity over this issue. So how much has Maine/Alaska complained?
If Ford gets blown out of the room and nothing else serious/credible come out, they may push Kav through, but many GOPers are not happy with how this is playing out.
