The brilliant legal mind of Kavanaugh
The Senate's job, of course, is to decide whether Kavanaugh has the brilliant and principled legal mind everyone wants from a Supreme Court justice, or whether he is merely average, or whether he might actually be just a partisan hack with a nice make-up job for his public display
And, of course, the Senate hearings might cast real light on this, as Kavanaugh lays out his defense
So let's take a quick peek at the some of the workings of Kavanaugh's brilliant legal mind:
1. The beer defense. I drink beer. I like beer. Not everybody who drinks beer is a rapist.
Take-home message: He plans to be a Supreme Court Justice who likes to drink beer, so maybe you could drink a beer with him sometime
2. The calendar defense. When I was in high school, I had a calendar and sometimes wrote down parties I had gone to to and who had been there
Take-home message: If he had tried to rape a girl at a party, he'd have noted it in his calendar
3. The Clintons defense. The Clintons are behind this
Take-home message: Vince Foster murder! Cigar sex! Bengazi! Pizzaria child-abuse!
4. The yearbook defense. I'm not going to talk about the crass comments in my high school yearbook
Take-home message: He was a nice hard-working, hard-partying, hard-drinking boy at a nice Catholic high school so it's just rude of you to notice the crass comments in his high school yearbook

it seemed like he was trying to convince people that he was a good guy, you know, like all the rest of the red-blooded, beer drinking dudes out there. Just one of them. Didn't work with the women.
