Well, maybe the ongoing offers and counter offers will result in Ford testifying on Monday under mutually agreeable terms.
I'd like to see President Trump authorize a specific enhanced background check before then, but that doesn't appear likely.
Anyway, I'm sure you're right that Ford's detractors are using her current unwillingness to appear without any such investigation against her.
On the other hand, those who support her and those who are undecided pending more information probably view the fact that she's asking for professional investigation of her allegation to be another indicator that she's likely telling the truth.
