Well, Micah, I would say that Ford performed well as a witness. She wasn’t easily flustered. I found Mitchell’s line of questioning sort of anemic ultimately. She was trying to paint Ford in a partisan light, but the evidence wasn’t all that strong.

We should note that this was a much different hearing than with Anita Hill. Considering Mitchell’s time asking questions, I would assume female questioners had more time than male ones — way different than in 1991.
