Time to Move On

For John, BLUF:  For, for the next three weeks we will be living in two worlds.  One is where the Democrats have a Blue Tsunami and the other is where they don't.  This nightmare, except for the recriminations, should end when we wake up on 7 November.  Nothing to see here; just move along.

Feinstein wants Kavanaugh sexual misconduct investigation reopened if Dems take Senate

From Fox News, by Reporter Andrew O'Reilly, 17 October 2018.

Here is the lede:

Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., said Wednesday that if Democrats took control of the Senate following November’s midterm elections, she would be in favor of reopening an investigation into the sexual misconduct allegations levelled against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

Of course she does.  She embarrassed herself during the Hearings and now she wants a "Do Over", hoping for a better outcome.

I am blaming this, in part, on California's "Jungle Primary".  While, in theory, this system should produce more "moderate" candidates, in reality the mileage may differ.

Eviscerating Kavanaugh:  Sen. Feinstein, have you no sense of decency?

From The Chicago Tribune, by Contact Reporter John Kass, 19 September 2018.

Here is a key paragraph:

You’d hear about it in tales told by history teachers to frighten children, about Republican Sen. Joe McCarthy and his wild, unsubstantiated charges without evidence, of communists hiding under America’s beds.

US Army lawyer Joseph Welch did ask of Senator Joseph McCarty, "Have you no sense of decency, sir?  At long last, have you left no sense of decency?"

Yeah, about that, there is the thought that the Venona Papers suggest that "Tail Gunner Joe" McCarthy wasn't all wrong.

But, yes, I am embarrassed for my Mother, a Democrat, that she lived her last years in Rancho Mirage, but not as an immediate neighbor of Senator Feinstein and her husband.

UPDATE:  Corrected Spelling error in title.
