Like Ed just below, I am glad Sen. Arlen Specter is prodding the White House to move on filling Circuit Court vacancies. But it’s just too delightful that the senator’s letter to the president says that “[e]xpediency is crucial,” when surely the quality of action the senator means to call for is expedition. When Sen. Specter is with you, he’s a good ally to have. But I don’t know that he has ever not been for expediency.
