Associated Press quotes Senator Hatch as follows:
"He has now waited 14 years to come to this committee," Hatch said. "I have to say, he's an excellent judge, his reversal rate is less than the average, he has more than shown he's not only adequate but he's very very good. You might differ with him for any reason you might choose to do so, but you can't say he's a bad judge."

UPDATE: Reuters has this to add:
Graham said, "I don't think there's any extraordinary reason" to filibuster Boyle, but if Democrats raised a procedural roadblock he would consider their case…. Republicans will likely wait at least until next month before bringing the Boyle nomination up for a Senate vote.
