“Let me just say that this lady has got a good record, as Pat said, for a judge,” said Sessions, while sitting next to Leahy. “Prosecutor, lawyer, judge, district trial judge, federal judge–she’s smart, she’s capable.”
Sessions didn’t end there, adding, “She’s got the kind of background you would look for, almost an ideal mix of private practice, trial prosecution and circuit judge. That’s strong in her favor.”
