One last point. The 13 illustrations that the Democrats on the other side have given that they have said are filibusters, if I recall it correctly, 12 of those 13 are now sitting on the Federal bench, as you have said; is that correct? Mr. McCONNELL. I say to my friend from Utah, as far as I can determine, for every judge who enjoyed majority support, upon which there was subsequently a filibuster, cloture was invoked, and all of those individuals now enjoy the title ``judge.''
