No one can deny the preponderance of evidence against Biden weighs heavy compared to the shaky 'evidence' ginned up on Kavanaugh. The only detail she remembered was she had only one beer.
Odd don't you think? She could remember that but not the house or even the street the supposed rape occurred.
So where is that fervor now (shoot first ask questions later) mentality which besieged Trump's SC nominee? Kavanaugh was forced to endure an FBI investigation. Why not Joe? On second thought that might not be such a great idea.
The Dems are caught between a rock and I hard place. They know they're f**ked with Joe and their backup quarterback is Bernie.

JOE Biden accuser Tara Reade alleges in a new interview with Megyn Kelly that the former vice president pinned her up against a wall and told her "I want to f*** you."
Read told Kelly that Biden should drop out of the presidential race due to her claim that he sexually assaulted her in 1993.

The former Senate aide claimed Biden does not have the "character" for the presidency in her first sit down interview since he publicly denied the allegations.
She said she was bringing Biden's gym bag to his Senate office when the alleged assault took place.
“I remember being pushed up against the wall,” Reade said told Kelly in a clip obtained by The New York Post.
“The first thought I had was ‘Where’s the bag?’ which is an absurd thought, but that’s what I thought."
Reade claims that Biden pushed her against a wall while kissing her neck, then shoved his hand under her skirt and penetrated her with his fingers.
"Do you want to go somewhere else?" Biden then allegedly asked the young aide.
Kelly posted parts of the interview on Twitter on Thursday.
Read filed a criminal complaint against Biden last month despite the fact that the statute of limitations had run out in the case, saying it was for her own protection.

Biden strenuously denied the allegations in a pair of interviews with Morning Joe and The View.
"I recognize my responsibility to be a voice, an advocate, and a leader for the change in culture that has begun but is nowhere near finished," said Biden on Morning Joe.
"So I want to address allegations by a former staffer that I engaged in misconduct 27 years ago. They aren't true."
Kelly asked Reade how this made her feel during their interview.
“It’s been stunning, actually, how some of his surrogates with the blue checks [next to their Twitter accounts] have been saying really horrible things about me and to me on social media," noted Reade.
She went on to state that there is "a measure of hypocrisy" with how the campaign chose to respond to the allegations by championing women who come forward but discrediting her for doing that exact same thing.
Read said she is also now fearing for her own safety.

“All my social media’s been hacked, all my personal information’s been dragged through, every person that maybe has a gripe against me ... has been able to have a platform rather than me, talking about things that have nothing to do with 1993," she told Kelly.
That is when the host, who has always been at her best when interviewing victims of sexual misconduct, asked what Reade wanted say to Biden.
"You and I were there, Joe Biden,” replied Reade.
"Please step forward and be held accountable. You should not be running on character for the president of the United States.”
Kelly then asked Reade if she believed Biden - who is now the Democratic party's presumptive nominee in the 2020 race - would step down.
"I wish he would. But he won’t but I wish he would. That’s how I feel emotionally," said Reade.
Asked if she might settle for an apology instead, Reade said that "it's a little late."
The Sun has learned that the interview will continue to roll out in segments, and that Kelly did push Reade on some of her claims.
It is all very similar to the interviews Kelly conducted back in 2017 with the women accusing President Trump of sexual assault and harassment.
Reade has yet to appear on any of the major networks, and it is still unclear whose choice that is at this time.
Reade claims to have filed a complaint with the personnel office on Capitol Hill in 1993 after comments made by Biden made her feel uncomfortable.
She said that she spoke to three supervisors at the time as well, whom she identified by name.
None of those individuals recall having that conversation.

A friend of Reade's did however say that she knew about the situation with Biden and was the one who encouraged Reade to file a report.
