The AP has a report headlined "Olson Predicts Firestorm for Next Justice" which contains the following quote from Ted Olson, former Solicitor General of the United States, at a Federalist Society event:
The crowd cheered Thursday when Olson said that five Democrats, including Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle, who have blocked votes on 10 of Bush's judges, are in their final days in Congress. In a swipe at Daschle, who lost last week to Republican John Thune, Olson said that "even he, by the way, got a vote - not the vote he wanted but he got a vote- more than he gave 10 distinguished, honorable, exceptionally well-qualified Bush nominees."
