    If we never met, I'd feel comfortable saying that.

    I'm not confident that I remember every single person who I may have ever been introduced to at a party before. In fact I'd say its more likely than not I probably don't.

    I mostly agree with this. I went to a number of parties back in the day that no way I could tell you where it was, or who a lot of the people were that were there.

    But I certainly could tell you the times I was alone in a room with a girl and there was any kind of intimate contact. And I remember the girls... just not specifics of the location or timing of some of the parties.

    I had four parties in my apartment in 1986-87 in Gainesville. Each one had over 100-200 people, spilling outside the front and back doors. If someone was there, I'd have no reason to say who was or was not there. That's been over 30 years.

    Tell me their name and show me a picture from that approximate period of time. I'll remember.

    No. I’m truly sorry for your mother’s rape.

    I have been falsely accused - corporate environment - of sexual harassment. I would trade one thousand of those for your mother’s experience because mine was emotional, professional but a rape is so many more things and worse.

    Democrats timed this (especially Feinstein) and the rope-a-dope strategy looks like it will end in failure should the accuser decline to throw a punch with the Senate.

    We’re you a member of a fraternity? If so, you remember every single person you met during every rush week?

    Unless you have a photographic memory, I would guess that would be the case with almost everyone.

    In that case, you've got a much better memory for faces and names than I do - or don't get introduced to nearly as many people as I do.

    I'd be quite surprised if you've never been approached by someone who very clearly seems to have met you before, but that you don't know from Adam. Because that definitely happens to me.

    You have a better memory than I do. There were several women that I have been with that I couldn't tell you their names or even recognize them today. It would be more of, yeah there was this party, got laid but don't remember her name. It was me, my name is Jane. Sorry don't remember you.

    Putting names to faces isn't always easy, but I have a tremendous memory when it comes to recalling people I've met. I can usually remember one or the other, if not both.

    Congratulations on your perfect memory. Do you recognize that most people would not be able to state with 100% certainty if they had been at a party with someone else there?

    Certainly. But I imagine that Mark Judge could say whether or not he knew the woman, especially considering she said that she bumped into him again at a later time. Yet, he hasn't denied meeting her/knowing her to my knowledge.

    More from Mark Judge: "It's a good thing that feminism is teaching young men that no means no and yes means yes. But there’s also that ambiguous middle ground, where the woman seems interested and indicates, whether verbally or not, that the man needs to prove himself to her. And if that man is any kind of man, he’ll allow himself to feel the awesome power, the wonderful beauty, of uncontrollable male passion."

    That is an extremely provocative statement in context of this situation... let's provide a link in support of this, or drop it, please. Thanks.

    The part that makes me wonder about all of this is that the Senator sat on the allegation until the hearing was basically over. And now the alleged victim comes forward, but doesn't want to testify after being invited to do so on Monday. This looks like a simple delay tactic to me.

    Completely taken out of context. Here is the original article where Judge wrote that. It was a piece on a crime novels publisher.
    Here is the paragraph directly after the previously posted one.
