Do we get to find out who the real nominee is now?

on the one hand, she was wholly unqualified and the idea of a stealth candidate for the supreme court is very unsettling

on the other hand, I feel kinda sorry for her and the way she was just raked across the coals. I mean, couldn't people have waited for her to have a hearing and then get voted down on her merits?
