Uh-oh. I hope he's not related to Sam Alioto.

I think you mean "Alito"; if so, no relation :-)

Isn't Alioto what Kennedy kept calling Alito during the hearings? No wonder that name was always on the tip of his tongue!

Joseph Alioto, ex mayor of San Francisco. The family ran long shoreman and other SF politics for years. My grand pa said that the corrupt Aliotos were one of the reasons why our family left SF years ago to live in the East Bay.
