    Ben Sasse, who has been remarkably silent in the aftermath of the Ford revelations, jumps into question Kavanaugh and aid in his defense. Sasse now joins his GOP colleagues to angrily criticize Feinstein's handling of the Ford allegations.

        Whenever #BrettKavanuagh is faced with a tough question instead of answering, he repeats the same lines over and over from his opening statement. Makes him look guilty like he’s hiding something, 😳 #KavanaughFordHearing

        This is why I don't understand people giving credit to @BenSasse, @JeffFlake, & @SenBobCorker for their fleeting moments of defiance. They talk, they tweet, then they fall right back in line.

        And I suspect —though do not know— that this mirrors @JeffFlake thinking. Fundamental decency joins both men, and fundamental decency is disgusted by this “character assassination” as @GloriaBorger just characterizes @BenSasse view.

        @BenSasse just told every woman and every victim he doesn’t believe them. He doesn’t care about them. He is not a moderate he is a sexist relic no different than Hatch and Grassley. I respected him.

        Central issue: do people sincerely believe that Kavanaugh is the best that this country has to offer? For a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court. There are countless highly qualified people out there. Just look at this angry, hateful, arrogrant, petulent and belligerent man.

        Sasse was, as ever, waiting to see which way the political winds were blowing before he cast his lot. I used to think Sasse had a political future, maybe even even a presidential run. I suspect this will follow him for quite some time.

        I hope it follows him, but you may not be surprised by how RED Nebraska is. Sasse poses for the cameras, but always seems to do what his party wants. He's an ass.

        If Sasse yearns for anything other than being a Nebraska Senator, he just blew that out of the water.

        That's what I'm thinking. As red as Nebraska is, Sasse *should* have no problems getting reelected there. It's his national aspirations that may have taken a hit.

        As always! My 22 year old daughter hopefully told me Sasse might be a swing vote by what he was saying. Hated to dash her hopes, but I told her he always talks big but in the end votes party line. Once again, he didn’t prove me wrong.
