Senator Jon Cornyn is piggybacking on McCain’s judicial speech by going to the Senate floor this morning (in the next half hour) to talk about the fact that “during President Bush’s final two years in office is that there have been a record low number of federal judges approved by this Senate. Since Democrats took over the Senate in 2007, a total of 7 circuit court judges have been approved—and only one this year.”
