A post from January 2006:
It's over and the winner is Justice Alito.
He will likely be present tonight when Pres. Bush delivers the State of the Union speech.
The good news is that Alito, and Roberts, will be Bush's primary legacy. The bad news is that 42 Democrats could not get beyond abortion.
The Alito hearings are exhibit A for overturning Roe v. Wade. Abortion has poisoned our national discourse.
