The vote ended an unusually partisan episode in modern Senate confirmation history, in which a largely uncontroversial nominee to one of the top cabinet posts was kept out of office for a lengthy period over issues extraneous to her job.

Gee, I seem to recall that the same thing happened to John Ashcroft, the former Missouri senator who graciously yielded his seat after narrowly losing his re-election campaign to a dead man when a judge ordered the polls in St. Louis to stay open longer so that everybody could vote for a second or third time.
Anybody else remember that?
