"This whole two-week effort has been a calculated and orchestrated political hit fueled with apparent pent-up anger about President Trump and the 2016 election, fear that has been unfairly stoked about my judicial record, revenge on behalf of the Clintons and millions of dollars in money from outside left-wing opposition groups"
He's making a very specific claim, that Ford is only alleging the assault because of partisan anger and conspiracy. This is unacceptable for any judge to claim without evidence.

Because that's EXACTLY what it was? She very likely did either knowingly or unknowingly misidentify Kavanaugh considering 1. Someone else confessed along with witness corroboration and 2. that person has likely already been made public but the story got shut down...
