WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush, stung by the rejection of his first
choice, nominated conservative judge Samuel Alito on Monday to replace
moderate Justice Sandra Day O'Connor in a bid to reshape the Supreme
Court and mollify his political base.


Mr. Pander picks a panderer.


SEN. TED KENNEDY (D-MA): "You Have Obviously Had A Very Distinguished
Record, And I Certainly Commend You For Long Service In The Public Interest.
I Think It Is A Very Commendable Career And I Am Sure You Will Have A
Successful One As A Judge." (Sen. Ted Kennedy, Committee On The Judiciary,
U.S. Senate, Hearing, 4/5/90)

SEN. FRANK LAUTENBERG (D-NJ): "I Believe Mr. Alito Has The Experience And
The Skills To Be The Kind Of Judge The Public Deserves - One Who Is
Impartial, Thoughtful, And Fair. I Urge The Senate To Confirm His
Nomination." (Sen. Frank Lautenberg, Congressional Record, 4/27/90, p.
S5281)

FORMER SEN. BILL BRADLEY (D-NJ): "he Confirmation Of Sam Alito As U.S.
Attorney For New Jersey Is Testimony To The Commitment He Has Shown And The
Success Of His Efforts As A Law Enforcement Official. I Am Confident That He
Will Continue To Do All He Can To Uphold The Laws Of This Nation With The
Kind Of Determination And Vigor That Has Been His Trademark In The Past."
(Sen. Bill Bradley, Congressional Record, 12/8/87, p. S17427)
