North Carolina's Senators Elizabeth Dole and Richard Burr defend the record of nominee Terrence Boyle here in the Washington Post (second letter down).
Also, Knight Ridder Newspapers has a story titled "Battle over judicial nominees likely to be ideological war" by Dick Polman. An excerpt:
Federal courts, in recent decades, have become the arbiters on abortion, affirmative action, gay rights, pornography, prayer, church-state relations - all the cutting-edge issues that pit liberals against conservatives and prompt impassioned debate over what kind of nation we want to be.
