    Nice. So, republican senators, who haven't done their job for a year when it comes to SCOTUS, won't do their job for another four years if Clinton wins. Disgraceful.

    And, if he had stuck with the upper part of the body, I might not have gotten -- I might not have gotten -- that upset.

    But, when he started putting his hand up my skirt, that was it. That was it.

    I was out of there.

    It was performance art. Your claim that you didn't have a dog in the fight was ridiculous even before you changed your story and admitted you were going to vote. Also, pointing out that you are full of crap is not an expression of anger. It is simply pointing out the truth.

    You can hold them to account politically all you want, but they're not constitutionally obligated to do anything w.r.t. SCOTUS nominees.

    Ugh. This is silly. This is usually the argument you make.

    If, after making small talk with a woman -- as she describes -- you are 15 minutes into planting kisses on her, without objection, wouldn't you think there was consent?

    Is it really absurd to think a guy might try to take it up a level?

    In her own telling of the story, it really does not sound like sexual assault.

    Sorry @YankeeFan, that's a no-go.

    She "let" him do it, so why not? Right?

    You didn't "gotcha" me here. It's an ambiguous phrase, as he used it, and Politico was wrong to write in a straight news story that he has admitted to sexual assault.

    The phrase itself is certainly ambiguous. No argument there. The way he used it, in its proper context, was not ambiguous.

    Can you explain to me how this is different than Kathleen Willey?

    This should inspire his new slogan.
