He will get some D votes, not all, but some.

IMHO he will not get a single vote from any Democrat on the committee. The White House strategy for the next nominee is going to be to select someone who mirrors Roberts as closely as possible. No Democrat on the committee wants to put himself or herself in the position of defending a Yes vote for Roberts and a No vote for a Roberts clone.

Did you see O'Reilly and Schumer?....Big "O" tried
to nail him down for a Roberts vote...he didn't say
no...I think there new strategy is to have a few
of the firebreathers go with Roberts...and a few
not...presenting a fair image of their dastardly
motives....watch 'em..they are sneaky as hell and
want to keep Bush from any successes... Jake
