JUDGE JOHN ROBERTS,
NOMINATED TO BE CHIEF JUSTICE OF THE UNITED STATES
[*]
SPECTER: Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
Good morning, Judge Roberts.
ROBERTS: Good morning, Mr. Chairman.
SPECTER: We will now proceed to the third round of questioning, which will be abbreviated. There are six senators on the other side of the aisle who have requested additional time. There will not be a third round for any of the senators on the other side of the aisle.
We will go into a closed session a little before 11 and we will turn to the outside witnesses hopefully at 11:30. And we project a conclusion late this afternoon, but that will depend on a sequence of events.
I now yield to my distinguished colleague, Senator Leahy, for 20 minutes.
LEAHY: Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Judge, you're really going to miss us, aren't you? You're going to miss doing this every day. I mean, it's -- you're not even going to answer that one, are you?
(LAUGHTER)
