[But her declarations weren't strong enough to convince some senators.] Gale Norton is no James Watt, but that distinction alone is not enough to justify this nomination, ... I will vote 'no.'

Gale Norton is one of the scariest Cabinet nominees since James Watt. We expect a fierce struggle over the fate of the Endangered Species Act.

Frankly, reconciling some of (her) past views with current testimony is not that easy, but I take Gale Norton at her word. Based on her testimony, because of the promises she made at the hearing, I will support her nomination.

Now that Roberts' nomination has been reported out of committee, we strongly urge senators to vote their conscience and reject his nomination when it reaches the floor. The stakes are too high and the consequences too great to gamble.
