Why not ask him how many beers or drinks he would drink. If he said no more than two that could be easily debunked. If he said 6-8 then most of us could assume he was getting drunk at each of these parties.
So I think the questions were too vague to be useful for anything but distortion. Some people may think he was "black out drunk" but how would you know that unless you actually talked to him the next day and he had no recollection. I think they are confusing passed out with black out.

Rejecting Kavanaugh has everything to do with abortion -- numerous from the left have told us this exactly.
First, I did hear questions by Sen. Whitehouse and others about specific calendar dates, notably July 1, 1982. Kavanaugh did say he never blacked out, but did fall asleep.
Secondly, there is no way to have a decent "trial" unless they actually were brought to trial, with evidence examined, witnesses questioned and cross-examined, etc.
If all it takes to convict people is to examine teenage drinking, we would have no unsolved crimes. I am as guilty as the next guy, definitely moreso than Kavanaugh. By this flawed logic, I could be "convicted" of murder, rape, conspiracy, every crime in the book. There is no way on earth I could go back to every day of my life and "prove" I was perfectly innocent. By that standard, I could not even "prove" my innocence for last week.
Regarding Ford's claims, there are up to 5 witnesses who supposedly were there who refute her claims. How many witnesses does one need? Look at how vulnerable you also are ZNP? What if some former HS classmate was in marital counseling because she wanted "two front doors" on her house. Using questionable memory devices, suddenly her political therapist helps her to "remember" that her life-long problems were all due to inappropriate contact with some ZNP guy decades ago. Enter WaPo with a wealthy owner hell-bent on destroying friends of Trump, and now your employer has serious misgivings about you interfacing with students.
If every "female survivor" must automatically be believed, then God save our country.
