oh man, this is brutal:

Katie then trained her sights on Biden's motormouth, quoting this brutal assessement by Washington Post columnist Richard Cohen thusly:

"[Biden's] tendency, his compulsion, his manic-obsessive running of the mouth has become the functional equivalent of womanizing or some other character weakness that disqualifies a man for the presidency. It is his version of corruption, of alcoholism, of a fierce temper or vile views -- all the sorts of things that have crippled candidates in the past."

And from richard cohen.

OHHH... you should have stayed - they only got better! /s Charles Hurt from the Wash Times was just giving a recap and said the testomonies from the judges today in favor of Alito were "relatively boring", but the real excitement should be tomorrow when the witnesses called by the democrats speak. Noooo. no media bias there!

When is the state of the union address? Are they trying to wait until afterwards? I have no clue why those idiots want to even do this.

Their hoping something will pop up that'll stop confirming Alito. That's the dumbos MO.

Hope Frist holds their feet to the fire. Let's pray for Spector, he's such a RINO...there's no reason whatsoever to delay past 17th.

GREAT...I hope that Frist sticks to his word THIS TIME!!

I bet Bush has put out the word...he wants it DONE by the SOTU address...so he can brag on him.

The dems are probably so disappointed that Sharon hasn't died....that was their excuse for postponing a week ago!

It is perfectly obvious to me that Specter is totally onboard on this one. He made it plain, again and again, including most significantly, including when he said that what one thinks a justice will do about Roe etc, is often not in fact what actually happens. That was a MAJOR signal from the man.
