One of Dr. Ford's contributions to the Kavanaugh process and future hearings is to reintroduce the concept of character as central to the confirmation of high court justices. Not the "character" that politicians refer to in their torrents of platitudes.
Instead, we are looking into who Kavanaugh is...how he has treated women as a young man, in college, in practice. We can see how that dovetails with his ideological views and political activities. We can see why he raised the smokescreen of his car pool dad persona.
He's not as Trump asserts, a "good" man by certain key definitions of the word. And he is not a "good" man to or for women (with the possible exception of those in his family or the inner circle of his associates.) The record shows this.
He should be judged on these terms and thanks to Dr. Ford he will be...as will those who support him.
