Sarah Sanders: ‘This Is a Coordinated Smear Campaign’ by Dems Against Kavanaugh
EXCERPT:
HUCKABEE SANDERS: "This is a coordinated smear campaign. No evidence, no independent corroboration, just smears. Here are just a few of the examples. Chuck Schumer said, and I quote, 'There is no presumption of innocence or guilt.' Chris Coons, who sits on the committee said, 'Kavanaugh now bears the burden of disproving these allegations rather than Dr. Ford and Ms. Ramirez.' Mazie Hirono, who also sits on the committee said that Judge Kavanaugh does not deserve the presumption of innocence because of his judicial views. One thing is clear. Democrats want to block Kavanaugh and hold the seat open until the 2020 election. This is about politics and this is about power, pure and simple. And they have destroyed judge Kavanaugh’s reputation, undermined Dr. Ford’s privacy and tried to upend our traditions of innocence until proven guilty in the process. It is a complete and total disgrace. We will receive and submit the FBI supplemental background investigation on his nomination to the Senate. As Leader McConnell said, Judge Kavanaugh deserves a prompt vote and we expect him to get one. And with that, I’ll take your questions."
