1 More Day of Questions for Sotomayor Posted on 7/16/2009
Sonia Sotomayor returns for a third and final day of questioning Thursday.
Her unwillingness to be pinned down on almost any topic frustrated even some friendly Democrats.
Sen. Specter Comments Sen. Arlen Specter, D-PA, said, "I think your record is exemplary, Judge Sotomayor, exemplary."
Specter said, "I'm not commenting about your answers, but your record is exemplary."
Vote in August A vote by the full Senate to confirm her is expected in early August.
That gives time enough to allow her to take the judicial oath and participate in a scheduled hearing Sept. 9 on a case involving federal campaign finance law.
Republicans Attack Despite her years of service, Republicans continued to focus more on Sotomayor's writings and speeches.
They said they were still worried Sotomayor would bring bias and a political agenda to the bench.
Sen. Sessions Comments Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-AL, said, "It's muddled, confusing, backtracking on issue after issue."
Sessions said, "I frankly am a bit disappointed in the lack of clarity and consistency in her answers."
