Clinton WAS LIKELY A RAPIST.....yet he was a competent president. That shows us that putting a likely sexual predator into high office isn't a necessarily catastrophic error. Still, nobody wants a sexual predator in high office. So the argument goes that it is better to reject the Kavanaugh just in case he is a sexual predator.
This a bad argument because in rejecting Kavanaugh for the purpose of avoiding one error, you could be making an even worse error. Now I came into this thread arguing there is a "by any means necessary", "do what ever it takes", "no Trump", "At all cost" movement in the left which could be purposely smearing Kavanaugh. Given the scant evidence to back the accusations against Kavanaugh it is a real possibility these accusers are outright lying, or are simply being used as tools of left winged whack jobs. The accusations are so nebulous, and uncorroborated that to reject Kavanaugh based on them means that any nominee should be rejected whenever a dubious uncorroborated accusation is levied against them. Just in case it might be true.
I'd rather take the risk that a sexual predator might get into high office than destroy the whole nomination process. One error is worse than the other and we cannot minimize both. Its like food production. You know your not going to produce the exactly right amount of food so it it better to error on the side of producing too much and have some waste rather than too little and have people die of starvation.
I firmly believe that most of you reading this understand it and want Kavanaugh rejected because of his ideology. You're just using these unfounded accusation as an excuse.
