Talk About a Litmus Test

“If one is pro-choice in this day and age, in this structure, one can’t vote for Judge Alito…It is simply that simple.” -Diane Feinstein, Senate Judiciary Committee, January 24, 2006

And this from the party that claims tolerance as its mantra. Things are looking good for Alito but we’ll have to wait and see.

Update: Just saw this from Tony Perkins at the Family Research Council:

Senate Democrats want to drag out the confirmation vote so they can spend six days in prebuttal before President Bush gives his State of the Union address next week – that is, six days of bashing the President. I feel confident that in the next six days we will hear more from Democratic members of the Senate about the alleged failures of President Bush’s policies than about the qualifications of Judge Alito.
