The number of DEMs who wanted to go was limited, so Specter easily gave whatever time was requested. He figures the questioning will be done shortly, which I take as one more DEM. The GOP have been reserving their time, so Alito has been facing back to back DEMs. Once the DEMs are done, Alito has a couple paper answers to prepare, then be available if necessary for further questioning.
