Judiciary Approves Sotomayor
The Senate Judiciary Committee has voted 13-6 to send the nomination of Justice to Be Sotomayor to the full Senate. Democrats votes 12-0 in favor while Republicans voted 6-1 against. Sadly it seems that the trend which prevailed in the Roberts and Alito nominations is continuing.

I shocked that Orrin Hatch voted No. Then again, this is a spectacularly bad nomination.
That, as they say, is that.
If only getting a decent reform bill out was this easy, like it should be.
