8. Politics of the Third Circuit Court of Appeals |
|
Senator Rick Santorum has a lot of apparent control over appointments to the Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit (Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, PR).
Santorum peremptorily and perfunctorily vetoed Clinton's nominees to the court (including a Democratic former federal prosecutor who was close with Thornburgh and Hatch - but who had the gall to support Harris Wofford against Santorum)
Santorum approved Chertoff - tells you something
