My one thought on Kagan's confirmation hearings

I've read various different analyses of the confirmation hearings for Elena Kagan. Most praise her wit, while simultaneously noting that she did not reveal much of herself, as is the norm these days. Several have mentioned some variation on the theme of "the best performance in this setting since John Roberts," which I find hilarious.

There have only been two other nominees since then, so that's just another way of saying "did better than Alito and Sotomayor."
