    David Lat Retweeted Ed Whelan

    A bold prediction from @EdWhelanEPPC re: Judge #Kavanaugh; if this comes to pass, Ed called it. (I’m not aware of what’s giving him this confidence, but time will tell.) #SCOTUS #KavanaughConfirmationhttps://twitter.com/EdWhelan123/status/1042180930620796928 …

    David Lat added,

    Ed Whelan @EdWhelan123
    By one week from today, I expect that Judge Kavanaugh will have been clearly vindicated on this matter. Specifically, I expect that compelling evidence will show his categorical denial to be truthful. There will be no cloud over him.

        Even if the something in his pocket materializes, Ed underestimates the depravity partisan politics in the social media age.

        I know: I guarantee the @SenateGOP leadership will declare Kavanaugh “vindicated” after the hearing. Guarantee it.

        How is that’s a bold prediction? It’s an event with only two possible outcomes each of which seems equally likely at this point. That’s just a 50/50 guess.

        Vindication is an awfully high bar. You’d basically need a confession from the actual perpetrator (to the extent there is one).

        My prediction: The tone deaf GOP will do what they always do, ignore the Democrats, and the majority of U.S. citizens. The Senate will vote, every Republican will vote for Kavanaugh, and a far right wing ideologue and attempted rapist will be the next Supreme Court Justice.

        Seriously, David. No seasoned lawyer would ever present her as a witness with all the holes in her story. Cross would be brutal.

        Yea what kind of “compelling evidence” one may hypothesize to exist that would “vindicate” a person from this type of allegation?

        It's hard to imagine how Kavanaugh could be clearly vindicated given that we have no meaningful details here about where/when this took place other than the year and the state, but I guess we'll see!
