Fillibuster Alito

The editors of the NY Times came about as close as possible today to calling for a fillibuster of Alito, without actually calling for it. Here's the final graf:

The real risk for senators lies not in opposing Judge Alito, but in voting for him. If the far right takes over the Supreme Court, American law and life could change dramatically. If that happens, many senators who voted for Judge Alito will no doubt come to regret that they did not insist that Justice O'Connor's seat be filled with someone who shared her cautious, centrist approach to the law.
