narcissist. I watched (live) the Anita Hill hearing and it occurred to me that Thomas felt he was above reproach -- despite that Hill's testimony was quite believable. Instead, he turned on the "high-tech lynching" defense.

It's the only time I was disappointed with Biden. He came after Hill, alluding to specious accusations. I'll always believe that Biden's attack played a role in Thomas's selection. Likely to his own regret.
