Kavanaugh Accuser Taps Democratic Operative

This is great news https://politicalwire.com/2018/09/20/kavanaugh-accuser-taps-democratic-operative/

“Christine Blasey Ford, the woman who has accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexually assaulting her when they were both teenagers, is being advised by Democratic operative Ricki Seidman,” Politico reports.

“Seidman worked as Joe Biden’s communications director during the 2008 general election campaign, after he was named Barack Obama’s running mate. In 2009, she helped the White House manage the confirmation of Obama’s Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor.”

I had concerns she would walk into this alone, lacking relevant knowledge of what and how the GOP would minimize, trivialize, shame and dismiss her in public.

That she now has a professional operative working with her renders those concerns of mine, moot.

That would be great. TV would go apeshit. All the repugs on the committee would be removing invisible glasses and stammering incoherent questions.

Need to call somebody about that idea. I dunno who, but I'd turn the tv on for that!
