Kavanaugh wasn't attacked unfairly at all! He was a poor candidate, with a dubious past which needed to be examined. He appears to just be a Trump stooge who never utters a word of criticism of the man who gave him his job. No evidence of a great legal mind on show there.

Coney Barrett seems a class act. Principled and thoughtful. She might be a conservative but I suspect her loyalty will be to the constitution and the law and not to any pressure from the right. So she might well surprise people, just as John Roberts does.

The Dems won't attack her on a personal level. Why should they? They don't stoop that low. They will attack the process and the attempt to thwart the will of the people. What happens when we have a Dem POTUS and a Dem controlled House and Senate is the really interesting question. Will they expand the Court and risk that principal becoming established?

Genuinely a laugh out loud moment, you're a fool. They are already piling on her because.
A/ She happens to be a Catholic.
B/ She adopted Black kids.

It was very much more than a "grope" and she was a compelling and completely believable witness. I watched those hearings live and she either spoke the truth or was the greatest undiscovered actor the world has seen. Kavanaugh's face told a story too. It exposed him as a liar and a fraud. Nevermind it happened long ago, when standards differed. Truth and honesty are timeless and he failed.

There were others. They just didn't testify. Testifying in cases that impact Trump requires a lot of personal bravery, not only for yourself but your family and I can well understand why some are reluctant when careers have been ruined as a result.

You are the fool!

In any political grouping as large as the Democrats, or indeed the Republicans, there are going to be some who say stupid things and provide their opponents with the opportunity to sling mud. Not every Democrat believes in left-wing politics, or supports Antifa, just as not every Republican is a white supremacist or a proud boy.

Of course the Democratic Senators will probe a candidate's personal beliefs and elicit answers that they will need to stand by in the future. No jurist ought to allow their personal convictions to over-ride the law and making sure that won't happen is particularly important when dealing with anyone who holds a strong religious conviction. That's their job and you would not expect anything different, whether they be Democrat or Republican.

It's the same with adoption. They will probe the motivation and get statements on the record. There is nothing to see here at all.

The primary area of attack won't be on the candidate but on the process which puts her under consideration. Even that, I suspect, won't be centre stage. People have their minds made up about that already. The focus will be on what a Democratic POTUS, together with a Democratic majority in both houses, will do to repair this damage and restore the integrity, dignity and reputation of a country which has suffered such a huge fall in those areas in the last 4 years.
