I believe Dr Ford. I do not believe Judge Kavanaugh. The quiet and fearful Dr Ford was believable to me. The pugnacious, petulant, and resentful Kavanaugh was startling, and troubling to me. My conservative friends probably feel his outbursts were understandable and warranted. Not I.
Here is my biggest question. Does anyone think that Judge Kavanaugh can possibly judge impartially in cases before him where Democrats line up on one side and Republicans are on the other? I think he has long been much more of a conservative operative than a judge, but after his venomous attack on the Democrats who he accused of trying to destroy him, who can believe he could be other than revengeful?
I certainly did not see anything that I would call judicial temperament.
