Some say "No one" will come up to the intellectual level of Roberts....We'll see....Surely there are others who have been first in their class and are as scholarly.
I have to hand it to old Arlen..he's run this hearing perfectly..and slapped down the Dems whenever needed...and stuck to his timetable..he deserves a kudo..
Probably, but can you imagine having to follow Roberts in confirmation hearings.
Would be sort of like having to follow Lucianne Pavarotti in a tenor competition.
Pressed earlier on Court TV, Dershowitz mentioned McConnell as a possibility of a first-rate legal mind (and one other I hadn't heard of and forget). (He trashed both Ediths.) He did freely grant that Roberts is first-class.
