You need a group of women. And the more powerful the perpetrator, the more women you need.

It's going to take a mountain of evidence to sway any Republican, much less 2 or more Republicans. I'm not even convinced video of Kavanaugh committing sexual assault would do the trick. That party is ethically bankrupt.

joking with a woman pretending to be asleep.

That seems to be going too far for office.

That type of pathological behavior doesn’t occur in a vacuum. The GOP letter signed by women he didn’t assault is a tell and so very lame.

about the attempted rape, my visceral reaction to him was that he was a rapist.

Gut, strong reaction. If that was my reaction, others must have had it. And it must be based on something.

Which is why it will not surprise me if a few more do not come forward. And I suspect his rapes or attempted rapes were not confined to women, or those his age.

He has a very cruel cold field about him. The way he walked away from the Stoneman Douglas dad....

This is not a man who respects women, despite the glowing recommendations from women he hasn't raped.
