Than one, and this makes me wonder about the accuracy of her memory and et cetera, and the clock is ticking on that. something else is happening, though. its not just about people coming forward. the best investigative reporters at every news organization over these next days and for the last 48 hours have been looking to see what else might there be from this period of brett kavanaughs life. the next 48 hours or 72 hours, we could be having an entirely different situation. >> one of the things ...

Even though they dont have any details of the incident. and one of them joins me now. and tell me about the woman that you know and her credibility and the seriousness and how political she is or isnt. >> well, christine is a very serious person in terms of her intellectual pursuits. she has proven that through her success as a professor and colleague. she is a biostatistician, and someone who has devoted her entire career to accuracy and data and facts. >> do you know anything about brett kavan...

Disparity. >> its not the accuracy of those accusations thats at issue, its the relationship of 98 men in the united states senate to the majority of the citizens of this nation, women. whether or not we are capable of saying that when one woman stands up and suggests this, not because she volunteered it but because the senate committee came to her, and then she felt they werent listening, whether were now going to listen. thats what its about. >> senator, you look at that, is the senate doing a...

But its not the personal. its also the political. if turkey wasnt so adamant about denying the historical accuracy. this is what makes it a living issue, a present issue. >> anthony: going forward, do you think there will be some kind of reconciliation? >> richard: well, im a little more positive. this is now the turning point, armenia looking to normalize relations with turkey. not because of the genocide, but despite the genocide. >> anthony: do you have any expectation of fruitful negotiation...

It couldnt have happened but a visit accurately remember? we dont like that distinction. we want to say hes guilty or shes telling the truth. nobody wants to actually go into the nuance because we are so scared of being smeared. if you site may be ghost long wait, then you go you are enabling abuse. if you do not believe this right now, you are enabling abuse. no, i just happen to believe that the human mind and memory is incredibly fallible. its a vulnerable thing. this is a larger question for...

>> jonathan turly was on earlier this morning. he as well as the "wall street journal" editorial page have questioned the timing of this information coming out. democrats had the information for two months and held on to it until after the hearings were all but over. what would you say to jonathan turly? what would you say to conservative critics who suggest that democrats hold this information for as long as they could and then released it at the end of last week to delay the vote? >> i know a ...

Judge kavanaugh background who attest to his integrity. many of them who went to high school. all of that needs to be taken into consideration in this 11th hour character assassination on heels of this vote. it raises a lot more questions. >> alice, do you believe this woman? >> i think especially in this metoo movement, every woman needs to be heard. they need to be believed. at the same time we have to look at the full story in context. i believe 100% in the accuracy and integrity of judge kav...

Shes shared a detailed description of the alleged attack. she had therapy notes from 2012 where she talked about this and even passed a polygraph test. what do you think should happen with the confirmation vote? >> i think it should move on as scheduled for mark up and vote this week. my question is if senator finestein had it back in july, why didnt she say something about it. since she received this notice, theres been 65 meetings with judge kavanaugh and members of the u.s. senate. shes had...

Prosecutor jaworski and his staff that actually wrote this thing and that it then became the grand jury report when they agreed to bless it. but you dont necessarily need a prosecutor to take that role. technically the grand jury could do it on its own. so it is a very interesting way to get around this seeming problem of how the information this prosecutorial team has gathered can reach the congress if the white house does not want that to happen. >> jill, how important is to get out and viewed...

We need to believe victims whenever they come forward. the complication is when the victim wants to remain anonymous and all these years later there is this inability for judge kavanaugh or for the senators overhe overseeing the confirmation hearings to judge that the credibility and the accuracy of it. and all of this is left unresolved and there is sort of this cloud over everybody involved. so, i think first and foremost it is unfortunate for the victim and unfortunate for everybody involved ...
