Hell no, the votes are not determined by the hearings. Few senators have the guts to do the right thing. They are moved only by their perception of getting re-elected. Nothing else matters to most of these boobs. A very few of them stand on principle, like Coburn from OK, Rep. Tancredo from CO and a handful more, but most are in love with the perks and power.

Televised hearings, I most certainly do.
The left if run by special interest groups.
They wanted Judge Roberts DEFEATED soundly and the strategists on the left look like idiots before the nation (not just to us) for voting down this man who came across as Judicial Rock Star in the hearings.
Sadly, I do not think the substantive matters in the hearings decides the votes.
