Schumer: burden is on nominee to prove worthy, not up to Senate to prove unworthy. I voted against him because he wouldn't answer questions.

One question he wouldn't answer: What three decisions are you critical of?

I don't think he should answer any questions to try to get Chucky's vote-- it is a hopeless case.

Durbin calling Roberts "Controversial" and will be tough confirmation.

We couldn't ask for a better group of three to lead the filibuster than Turban Durbin, THe Swimmer, and Chucky Schumer. God is looking out for us

right. Rope a dope should be the strategy. Give them high level platitudes. Nominee should not answer specifics because they may be required to hear those cases later. Nominee should keep their cool and give bland smooth answers and put everyone to sleep. What can the dems do? Unless they have a smoking gun paper trail he gets confirmed. If they filibuster - go nuclear and shut the whole place down.
