2. He should never have been nominated

After learning about this guy on Bill Moyers' NOW I am amazed that Bush would dare to put forward such a person in the first place!

3. Damn moderate republicans

I really thought we had a shot at Chafee, Snowe, and Collins with this nomination. However, it seems like they have stayed with the republicans even though we know that Pryor's views are the complete opposite of these three senators. I'm still being optimistic and hoping they are saving up their ammunition for any potential supreme court nomination in the future.

6. Great quote from Schumer on this national treasure!

(snip)"In a sense, he's the Frankenstein nominee -- a stitching together of the worse parts of the worst nominees the president has sent us," said Sen. Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.).(snip)

Thanks for the news!
