The 61st minute for windbag Senators?

September 12, 2005 Posted by Paul at 4:32 PM

Matt Margolis has been live-blogging the Roberts confirmation hearing. Mark Tapscott explains the significance.

SCOTT adds: On a related note, Knight Ridder is sponsoring its own blog on the Roberts confirmation hearing at Roberts Left and Right, with Nan Aron of the Alliance for Justice facing off against former Bush (41) Associate White House Counsel and former Scalia clerk Lee Otis.

PAUL adds: I strongly recommend Lee Otis' reflections to our readers. In addition to being just about the smartest person I know, Lee understands both the confirmation process (she was the Bush administration's point person during the Clarence Thomas hearings) and the Senate Judiciary Committee (she was counsel to Spencer Abraham when he served on it) from the inside.
