Hatch's term is over in 2006. He wants to be a Supreme Court justice, which I suspect is the real reason he is kissing Leahy's hand. And Hatch is absolutely deluded in thinking that any of the Dems on Judiciary committee will remember his "evenhandedness and fairness." They'll have the knives out for him immediately.

Hatch's chances to be on the Supreme Court died with the Estrada fiasco.
