Have they? I'm not being snarky, but I haven't seen that. I did see his roommate say he would get belligerently drunk and that the accuser was a trustworthy person. There's apparently a 3rd accuser set to speak up (but who knows). 

Quote:A reasonable point.  I would counter by saying that a delay of three days rather pales in the face of a delay of two months.  Point being, if the Dems wanted these allegations to be investigated at length they should have come forward with them when they received them, months ago.  As they did not it appears a thorough investigation is not really their objective.

I know what's "right" and "decency" go out the window in DC, so I cannot defend Feinstein sitting on this rather than pushing for a real investigation as soon as she found out, but should due diligence not be done just because she sucks?

If he's innocent, it'll remove a blemish.
