The Democrats do not have anything on Judge Brett Kavanaugh so they are delaying as long as possible hoping that they can extend the confirmation hearings until after the November mid-terms. If they regain control of congress, they can then sucessfully Bork Judge Kavanaugh's confirmation. From the San Diego Union-Tribune:
Kavanaugh accuser's offer to testify about alleged sexual assault puts key Republicans in a bind
After days of silence about whether she would appear, California professor Christine Blasey Ford told the Senate Judiciary Committee Thursday that she is willing to testify next week about her allegations of a decades-old sexual assault by Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.
Emphasis mine - she was supposed to testify last Monday - three days ago and now they are trying to delay until next week. What happens there? Also, she carries a grudge, Kavanaugh's Mom ruled against her parents in a legal matter.
She has nothing. The Democrats have nothing. Hence, their only strategy is to obfuscate and delay.
