Prosecutors haven't revealed everything they have, so it's hard to render judgment on them.

The vast majority of his statements are different versions of legal truisms. We really have not learned anything in these hearings.

The other irony is that Roberts is a lifelong advocate of federalism and states' rights. Like his mentor, Rehnquist, he has a narrow view of the commerce clause.

The highest points I give Rehnquist is for his sense of long-term judicial strategy.

I'm making tapes for insomniacs to use in the future. I'm going to sell them as a kit to cure insomnia.

[Since his initial nomination in July, Roberts was considered likely to win confirmation for the O'Connor seat and is still expected to be confirmed as chief justice.] Democrats are in open disarray in the Senate, ... This is not the type of fight you win by coming late to it.

He's a man who seems to take his legacy seriously, ... The last thing he wants is to be viewed as the man who ran through Roberts on a party vote.

It's highly ironic that it was the conservatives on the court who overturned so many statutes.
