The problem is that she DID hide behind her anonymity. She, and Anna Eshoo and DiFi, decided to keep the whole thing quiet until it could be dropped at the last minute. I am not impressed with her action here. If she was going to stand up to this person, then she should have done so when he was nominated. But if she was going to keep it quiet, then she should have stayed silent. As it is she is either a cynical operativer or she is being manipulated by the democrats.
Anyone issuing death threats is deplorable, whether the threat is to the accuser or to Kavanaugh for having the temerity of being nominated to the Supreme Court while possibly disagreeing with them on the analytical framework of the Roe decision. You think Kavanaugh hasn't received a mountain of threats already?
This is all just political theater. I have no strong feelings about the accuser but I suspect she is being manipulated and I suspect she believes she is telling the truth. But the whole thing stinks.
