The heated Senate Judiciary Committee hearing that featured dueling testimony by Brett Kavanaugh and accuser Christine Blasey Ford has fueled even sharper divisions among voters.
The last week has seen Americans jumping off the fence to register their views, with the number opposing Kavanaugh now surpassing those who want him to get confirmed in a CBS News poll.
Those opposing his nomination hit 37 per cent, up from 30 per cent a week ago. Kavanaugh's level of support simultaneously jumped, though not by as much. It rose to 35 per cent from 32 per cent.
The number of Americans both supporting and opposing Brett Kavanaugh for the Supreme Court increased compared to last week rose as they got off the fence following a party clash over his confirmation
The number saying it was too soon to weigh in dropped by 10 points, from 38 to 28 per cent, following wall-to-wall coverage of the hearing.
As Kavanaugh moved from rhetoric pledging to be an umpire on the court to launching a partisan attack on Democrats and accusing them of acting in part as revenge for the Clintons (Kavanaugh worked for special counsel Kenneth Starr during the Bill Clinton impeachment), Democrats have been moving to oppose him.

Democratic opposition jumped from 60 to 68 per cent, while GOP support leapt from 69 per cent to 75 per cent. Independents favor confirmation by 37 to 32 per cent.
At last week's hearing, Ford said she was '100 per cent' confident of her allegations of sexual assault against Kavanaugh, while Kavanaugh's denial was also total.
More men, 41 per cent, favor confirmation than women do, 29 per cent overall. The data point comes amid warnings that the Senate GOP's push for Kavanaugh could cost the party among suburban women, which could further hinder the party's chance of keeping the House.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
