How will Holder fare later this week?
I believe the Committee vote on Eric Holder's nomination to head Justice comes up either wednesday or thursday. Clearly he is feared. How do you think it will go?

1. If they think they can stall it through March (when the statute of

3. they can't block him in committee
it's possible but unlikely that they can pull off a filibuster.
