Roberts: 78-22. Next one, please

John Roberts is the 17th Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. After Senate’s confirmation, with 78 votes in favour and 22 against, Roberts sworn in at the White House and became, at 50 years of age, the youngest Chief Justice of the Supreme Court in the last two centuries. Now, United States wait for the next nomination by President Bush. And after the moderate that succeeded to divide the Democrats in the Senate, the conservative wing of Repubblican Party claims its own man. It will be a deathmatch.
