Alito less drama, please

While I doubt that Joseph Biden would willingly eliminate the only vehicle for his regular-guy boringness, he's got a point: why not debate the merits of a SCOTUS candidate on the Senate floor, like it used to be done? That way we can forget the sight of the majority party purring its questions to the candidate, and the minority party getting red in the face because it wants to force the SCOTUS candidate to admit to a bad faith that members of the minorty party themselves flaunt.

Above all, we can wipe the memory of a SCOTUS candidate's wife crying for the cameras.
