That is my guess as to why they are in such a hurry to rush him through. And why they refuse to release all his material.
They clearly knew about this allegation before this started. They clearly know that there is stuff from the W years that will completely sink him.
But I have had a suspicion all along that they know there is even more stuff (Like the conversations Harris questioned him about). Which leads me to think…we are probably only looking at the tip of the iceberg.
It’s really puzzling how his supporters are all going with some variation of “sure it happened, but long time ago, just rough horseplay, drunk indiscretion of young kid, etc ,etc.”, while Kavanaugh is still going full steam ahead with these absurd “Never happened, Never knew her, Wasn’t at party that I still remember to this day, here are 65 other girls I knew while attending an all boy school that I never raped, look at these teen girls I coach!” defense. Its so jarring how wide the gap is between those two points that it makes me think, they (or he) was prepared for this particular event…but were expecting something along these lines. Which means…she probably wasn’t his only victim.

He’s applying for a job, Senator Collins - a job for life. And it ain’t at the local Arby’s either, you insufferable clown. And don’t think we can’t remember your words vilifying Al Franken after he was accused. I don’t remember you saying that Al was being railroaded out of the Senate and deserved a fair hearing.
And about every time I and others, both male and female, post something criticizing Phony Media Moderate Senator Susie Creamcheese Collins, someone calls me and others sexist and that Collins is the “go-to” female we think we are allowed to criticize. We don’t criticize Collins because she’s a woman; we criticize her because she is a hypocritical asshole. One vote to save healthcare that she later invalidated by being fooled by Mitch McConnell doesn’t make her a canonized saint. She deserves all the scorn she gets here until she starts acting like a human being, which goes for every politician, male or female.

Kavanaugh: “I wasn’t at that party, even though Christine Ford never said which party it was. And I have never touched a woman in any way in my entire life. All of my children were born due to immaculate conception.”
Collins: “What reasonable person couldn’t believe a fine, upstanding Christian white man such as this?!”

Collins Wants Kavanaugh, Ford Lawyers To Question Each Other’s Client
I guess that she’ll have to “file her petition.”
Mark Judge. Ford’s lawyer needs to interrogate Mark Judge in the Senate.

"It’s very unfortunate for Brett Kavanaugh that the only person in the world besides himself and Christine Blasey Ford who might know with certainty what happened in that Montgomery County, Maryland bedroom 36 years ago is someone whom the Republicans absolutely do not want to call as a witness. I say this witness might know what happened because Mark Judge may have been too drunk to have remembered the incident the next morning, let alone after three and a half decades have elapsed. Professor Ford, if she testifies, will undoubtedly state again for the record that both Kavanaugh and Judge were extremely drunk that evening. And there’s nothing in Judge’s record to make us doubt this.
In fact, Judge, who is an alcoholic in recovery, wrote a memoir about his teenage and college years back in the mid-1990’s: Wasted: Tales of a Gen X Drunk. He followed that up with another memoir in 2005: God and Man at Georgetown Prep. In the former, he inadequately anonymized Brett Kavanaugh as “Bart O’Kavanaugh” when describing an incident where his friend “puked in someone’s car” and “passed out on his way back from a party.”
It’s clearer from the record than we’d ever normally expect that Brett Kavanaugh was in the habit of getting highly intoxicated at high school parties. It’s also clear from the record that Matt Judge had some highly dubious judgment about what makes for an appropriate yearbook quote.
I don’t know anyone who would have used that Noël Coward quote about people striking women regularly like gongs in their yearbook. Do you?"

Yep. This is why BK (Barfer King) lawyered up so fast. Collins is simply the front man for McTurtle’s plan to keep their toes out of the slippery #MeToo mud (imagine what stupid thing Grassley might let loose with this time). BK has a woman lawyer too, more immunity for the aggresive questioning.

Worth a look at the article: Brett likes his all-boys clubs: https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/mollyhensleyclancy/the-yale-secret-society-brett-kavanaugh-joined-was-mostly
ETA:
My fear is that any other victims are also within the republican bubble and dependent on their livelihood for it. Summer intern? Law Clerks? They will let Dr Ford lead the charge and then console themselves that their voice wouldn’t have mattered.
Jesus, kid, pull your pants up.
Feinstein already said there’s more. My guess is that she’s going to dole these out one at a time each time the GOP breezes past the last one. If they shortcut Ford, K will have to confront the next exposé. And the next. And the next. Until he starts seeing the pattern.

I am really hoping you are correct that there are more definitively disqualifying whatevers to come out.
