Are the hearings over for the day? Did Harris have another shot at him?

I heard that she was supposed to be going again, but I haven't seen any hearings since the lunch break. (I've been checking in from time to time, so maybe I just missed them.)

I hope she nails him on his inconsistency about his ability to speak about prior opinions. He weighed in about the Nixon decision (with Coons) in a way that he previously claimed he could not. Lots of new ammo.

Priyanka pointed out to me her squeaky clean and shirt record as a major plus, and I think she also has a certain star quality. She is the rare woman - like Ann Richards- who actually somehow is impossible to dismiss or deride when she’s angry. I hate to consider the likability factor but I think she’s got that in the bag too. She makes competence exciting.

7. I agree with all this. And she's a beautiful woman, which doesn't hurt.

There's also something that's amazingly strong about her. And she and her husband are a very attractive couple. I think she's a major contender.

Candidate, actually helps. Especially in these days of lawlessness. I’d love to see her run on prosecuting lots of the GOP!

I feel the same way about her. Lover her but, oh my, I'd confess to anything if she'd just stop asking me anything!
