Even though Senate Democrats appear unlikely to pursue a filibuster against the Alito nomination, The New York Times is urging full-speed ahead on this political loser:
“A filibuster is a radical tool. It’s easy to see why Democrats are frightened of it. But from our perspective, there are some things far more frightening. One of them is Samuel Alito on the Supreme Court.”
So not only are conservatives complaining about leftwing media bias. Now even the Senate Democrats will be, too.
