Good morning, all.

Join us today for the final victory lap, the vote to "confirm Samuel Alito, of New Jersey, to be an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court."

It's all over except the final vote tally.

Lots of surprises yesterday at the HUGE vote to impose cloture, so perhaps there are still some surprise votes to come?

I got Kerry & Kennedy... I'm the weiner!

I think I might be just as bad, or worse - I have Boxer and Feinstein! (Just having Box'o'rocks should win for me)

'Cspan now has the vote . . . still ongoing . . . Y = 58 N = 40'
