1) Yes, they should have refused.
2) I only listened to the case yesterday and that was in the background or on the radio to go get lunch. He sounded ok but it still too big a risk IMHO.
The court of public opinion will be different than a court of law, obviously, but I'm saying that before someone jumps in to say I think any different.
And yes, most people probably made their mind up about what kind of person he is before he testified.
I'll add there were a couple good threads about how his defenders in the public forums are shocked...just SHOCKED that prosecutors tried to make him look bad! I got a chuckle out of that.
No one is more offended by something than someone who thinks it would never happen to them (or someone they like).
Your anger and ego will always reveal your true self.
