Sources inside the Judiciary Committee and Democratic Senate leadership say that the one week carryover in the vote on Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito is something that was put forward by Sen. Harry Reid and his staff, in consultation with Democrats both inside and outside the Senate. Presumably this means Sen. Dick Durbin and Howie Dean over at the DNC.
Democrats and their operatives insist that “shoes are going to drop” about Alito and the nomination in the next couple of days. From our media contacts, we aren’t hearing about anything earthshaking that anyone is working on. There just isn’t anything out there. The man apparently is what he has appeared to be: authentic, bright, and more than competent.
