Terry Eastland explains why he thinks Samuel Alito is going to be confirmed to the Supreme Court despite the howls of protest likely to accompany his confirmation hearings.
By the way, those hearings commence on January 9th and will likely be replete with all manner of senatorial grandstanding and other buffoonery. We hope Senator Kennedy does better getting Judge Alito's name right than he did in his futile attempt a couple of months ago to get a handle on the name of Senator Obama, which at one point he had transformed into Osama Obama.
We're looking forward to the proceedings.
