beSpacific: "Transcript of Senate Judiciary Committee hearing for confirmation of Samuel Alito."
TalkLeft: "Law Prof Geoffrey Stone at Huffington Post writes that 14 constitutional scholars and former government officials have written a letter to Congress detailing the reasons that Bush's warrantless electronic surveillance program violates the law."
Josh Marshall: "Remember, Tom DeLay is still out telling everyone that the only thing that brought him down was a meritless indictment from a partisan Democrat. Today, the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals denied his request to have that supposedly meritless indictment tossed out.
"The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals is made up of nine judges. Each one elected. Each one a Republican."
Western Democrat: "Much like Governor Brian Schweitzer in Montana (though I'd argue Schweitzer had the more difficult task), Bill Richardson has proven his ability to get elected in a swing state. And with swing states making all the difference in recent presidential elections, Richardson appears more electable, in this regard, than some of the other potential Democratic nominees. A December 20, 2005 Survey USA poll shows Governor Richardson enjoying 64% approval versus only 33% disapproval. Those numbers rank right up there with Schweitzer who is among the most popular governors in the nation."
