Alito Voted Out of Judiciary Committee

It was a party line vote, which Senator Jon Kyl warned bodes ill for the future: "It is simply unrealistic to think that one party would put itself at a disadvantage by eschewing political considerations while the other party almost unanimously applies such considerations."

Byron York has some interesting comments at The Corner, including information on the Democrats' "non-filibuster filibuster" which could delay the Senate vote another week.
