HHH: It was pretty clear he was the smartest guy in the room.
Which doesn’t mean he is fit for the job of Justice, just that he would be the smartest guy in a room full of Senators. Schumer is as smart as Roberts, IMHO, but he’s my Senator, and I likes him. Eliot Spitzer for Supreme Court Justice!

Reading quotes from his answers, he does seem pretty smart – and he doesn’t have the air of a Scalia or Thomas – he seems to know the courts’ role pretty well. He’s probably got too conservative a strike zone for my taste, but at least it seems he knows the rules of the game.
