Jeffrey Lord writes at The American Spectator that “Enough is enough.” Despite Democrats’ best efforts, Lord says, Judge Kavanaugh has emerged a hero through this ordeal, just as Clarence Thomas did. He writes:
When Judge Brett Kavanaugh took his seat in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee he did not hold back. Like then-Judge Clarence Thomas in 1991, equally under assault from power-crazed liberal Senators and interest groups who consider the Supreme Court to be a private preserve, Kavanaugh let them have it. Among other things he said:
“You’ve tried hard, given it your all, no one can question your effort. But your coordinated and well-funded effort to destroy my good name and destroy my family will not drive me out.”

Among other things he said:

Judge Kavanaugh has emerged a hero after all of this. And ditto with Senator Lindsey Graham.
