“Well, if I might comment on that, the gentleman used the term double, double standard, a double standard. It actually is no longer a double standard. It is not as though there is one standard here and there is another standard here. I think what is happening in this particular case is that they are raising the standard. They are raising the bar so that it could never be achieved by Mr. Estrada. They are going to raise the bar to make sure that there is under no set of circumstances that he will ever be able to rise up to the level that they are setting for this individual. This is a question of basic fairness. And the American public, if they understand anything, they know what is fair. And they know what is happening to this individual, to this good man, with his background, is unfair. ... What the American people are saying at home is, give the man a vote. Vote up or vote no on his nomination. Vote yes or vote nay. But they are saying, give the man a vote. That is not happening.”
