They're fine in asking some questions but it's unfair for them to ask her
about her policy views; she's obviously a Republican, so hypothetically, the 
answers to their hypothetical questions should be inferred.

If they had any reason not to confirm her, it would be out in the open. The 
whole senate, on both sides, has turned it into a cultural phenomenon. Their

stuff, but now that they defend criminals, they are ganging up on an 
adorable lady and intuition tells us that this little blondie is pro-life and 
if you ask her expecting a different answer, you're playing the senate 
confirmation game well.
