to do. dr. blasey-ford's wishes, until she talked to the washington post on sunday, were that she remain anonymous. she didn't want to come forward or speak to the committee, even behind closed doors. she didn't want to speak to reporters and senator feinstein respected that. i think that's the right thing to do. lulty, it doesn't matter. republicans want to make it about senator feinstein because they don't want to focus on the accusations that have been made. it doesn't matter how she handled it, even if she had mishandled it. what matters is the search for the truth and that's what democrats have to focus on, the seven for the truth. and they have to treat both sides with dignity and respect. republican senators have talked about dr. ford the last few days with orrin hatch saying she might be mixed up with senator cornyn this morning, saying there are gaps in her story, appear to be gaps in her story, that's not the way to treat someone with respect who is coming forward in such a difficult circumstance. i'll say one last thing on this. there's a difference between the two sides of this committee.
