It was very obvious from his tone and line of questioning that he knew they had gone too far.
I thought Schumer began his attack immediately after Graham finished speaking. I didn't get to see it, but did get to listen to most of it today. I noticed that Durbin's tone was extra polite.
I'll be interested to see what they try to do with the supposed "new info" tomorrow, and whether Leahy will decide that something has happened that warrants more time for questioning, since Specter gave him the option of making that decision.
I thought so, too. He was way to even-handed for Durbin. The only other explanation I have is they decided ahead of time to play bad cop, good cop and everyone had their roll...
I could have sworn it was Schumer who went right after Graham because I made a mental note between Graham's soft spoken demeanor and then Schumer's questioning Alito as if he was guilty of kidnapping some little girl and hiding her somewhere.
