At the dawn of the new term in the fall of 2006, TV newsman Mike Wallace reminded RBG that in her confirmation hearings, she had said she expected to see three, four, or even more women on the court with her. “So, where are they?” he asked. “Sadly they are not here,” RBG replied bluntly. “Because the President has not nominated them and the Senate has not confirmed another woman. You would have to ask the political leaders why a woman was not chosen.”
