The confirmation rate is fine. That's got little to do with newspeeples' lust for conservative blood. And in a sideways sort of way, you're still proving my point by suggesting that the media have a hand in selecting which candidates get confirmed.

The media had no choice but to cover HD and AG's screaming fits, that doesn't mean that the fits are constructs of the media.

Edit: and like I said, they've been deemed disposable (AG has, anyway). Howard Dean is soon to follow. Negative coverage of those two does not constitute lack of bias.
