Supporters of President Bush's judicial nominees have hired the same media firm used by Swift Boat Veterans for Truth for their efforts to defend the next nominee for any upcoming Supreme Court vacancy.
...
The group has been hired into the judicial battle by the Federalist Society, the influential conservative judicial organization from which many of Mr. Bush's nominees have been picked.
"This doesn't surprise me," Mr. Neas said of the Federalist Society's hiring of CRC. "It just proves the point I've been making for years: It's a right-wing organization that is very political and very partisan."
Mr. Mueller said the Federalist Society's role in the nomination fight will be to "educate people" about the possible nominees. To that end, the society has created a list of legal analysts to talk to reporters.
