More Nominees Coming Out of Judiciary Committee

A little birdie may have told me that Senator Specter has just promised reporters that he will put Owen, Brown and Pryor to a vote in the first two weeks of April (without any need for a rehearing). In January, Senator Specter said: "In general, I do not propose to have rehearings. . . . There would have to be an exceptional circumstance that would require a hearing. We've already had hearings."
The transcripts of the previous hearings can be found online for Owen, and for Brown, and for Pryor.
UPDATE: Human Events has the story.
