MONDO ALITO is a special all-Alito-all-the-time blog at PJ Media.

UPDATE: If I’d watched the whole thing, I’d be crying, too. Er, if I were still awake . . . .

ANOTHER UPDATE: A bad review from Ann Althouse:

Durbin accused of Alito of seeking out ways to decide cases against the little guy and even tried to connect a decision of Alito’s to the recent mining disaster. Alito defended himself in his usual way: I decide cases according to the law. That case relating to mining was about the statutory definition of “mine,” and the above-ground pile of coal at issue in the case did not fit the definition.

“Pile of coal” = “mine,” eh? I’ve seen stranger legal arguments, but it’s hard to imagine that this played well on TV.

MORE: David Corn: “It doesn’t appear to me that the Democrats are striking fear into the hearts of Alito supporters.”

Meanwhile John Cole notes a missed opportunity by the Democrats.

STILL MORE: Kaus is unimpressed with Adam Nagourney’s coverage in the NYT (“embarrassingly, coccooningly wrong”) but thinks that John McIntyre of RealClearPolitics has it right. Dog bites man!
