Judge Sonia Sotomayor on Capitol Hill in June 2009. On his first day at the Justice Department in 1981, a 26-year-old lawyer named John G. Roberts Jr. was handed a high-profile assignment: to help prepare Sandra Day O'Connor, then an Arizona judge, for her Supreme Court confirmation hearings. "The approach was to avoid giving specific responses to any direct questions on legal issues likely to come before the court," Roberts wrote that September, "but demonstrating in the response a firm command of the subject area and awareness of the relevant precedents and arguments." That advice ? sound as if you know what you are talking about but avoid saying anything ? has been followed pretty faithfully by every nominee since, including the report's author, who is now chief justice of the United States. And it may well be followed by Sotomayor, whose Senate confirmation hearings are scheduled to begin Monday. (Doug Mills/The New York Times) 14059633
