If you want to claim Democrats are rallying the sheep, then by that same token, you can claim the Republicans desperation is equally rallying the sheep. After all, the Republicans have control of all branches of government, yet have almost zero accomplishments to point to in the past two years. Pushing Kavanaugh through rallies the Republican base and makes them feel like the party is strong and united (rather than denying their leaders pick.). So really, if you want to claim political advantage is the cause of this, its equal on both sides.

At THAT point, you have to look at the human beings involved, and who has more reason to lie on an individual level. Christine Ford was a successful professor, living a quiet life. If shes making up her allegation, then she openly put herself in the national spotlight and opened herself and her family up to death threats from people like you. All to accuse Kavanaugh of a crime that is already WILDLY lopsided in favor of the accused going unpunished, but more so in this instance, given how hard the Republicans want to push the nomination through to score a win for their side. If shes lying, then she is willing to subject herself to unbelievable levels of hatred and trauma, all for a MINISCULE chance of anyone actually giving a shit what she has to say.

Kavanaugh, meanwhile, has FAR more reason to lie, since if Ford is telling the truth, it means he committed a crime and can be punished for it. There is far more reason for him to lie than there is for her to come forward from obscurity to fabricate and accusation.

Occams Razor, as you always point out.
