Are they going to go for another round I heard something about Schumer but not sure if he too wants a third round, God help us.

Yes they are. Tomorrow morning at 9 a.m. It appears there are 3-4 dems that will speak, Kennedy, Durbin, Schummer (the usual suspects) and possibly Kohl. They are limited to shorter time periods though, and it should go very fast. It will be followed by the testimonials of various supporters or detractors of Judge Alito, starting either at 11 a.m. or 12 noon, can't remember which.

Just a few Senators, I believe I heard, and from the sound of it they're all dems.

If their staff listened to the callers on c-Span at the break they know they over-stepped on this one.

I'm laughing - listening to some caller to CSPAN from NY saying he's been sitting home watching the hearings for two days and that probably doesn't say too much about his life.

So Schumer isn't through asking the same questions for a third time? Can you believe this ass?

Actually, Feinstein is speaking in the morning also. Maybe I confused here with Schummer, or maybe both are speaking. We'll find out tomorrow morning.

Remember the money in the freezer? The special trip to his house to collect boxes of private items when the National Guard got stuck in the mud and they had to flag down a helicopter to rescue him?

Indeed, like it was yesterday. He wouldn't go in the chopper and demanded a ground vechicle so he could bring his freezer along ;-)

Some guy just called CSPAN and brought Mary Jo, saying Kennedy ought to be in prison, not in the Senate.

That guy is right.

Well, I too have watched from home for two days, but I'm self-employed and can watch and work.

I just saw FNC replay Graham's comments (which I was listening to but didn't see Mrs. Alito tear up) and it almost made ME cry to see her so affected by kind words.

It's often that way -- the kindness makes us break down and the ugliness makes us angry.

They're all the same pathetic person, whether it's kennedy, feinstein, or whoever. They just keep passing the same papers back and forth. Amusing and amazing.

After what happen today with Mrs Alito, the Dem are going to have to speak very softly just to regain some semblance of respect from the American people.

Believe me they are going to be polling on this bigtime tonight.
