Anyone Know The Woman Behind Roberts?
She looks very uncomfortable. Is it his wife? Talk about deer in the headlights.
:freak:

4. Thanks for the confirmation
I was going to look for her picture. I have been glued to her fot about a half hour. I have never seen a woman look so unhappy.
I had to show Mrs. Demonfighter who is good at reading people. She said in one second that she looks depressed.
I have tried to think of every possibility, hot flashes etc. But she is hurtin for certain.

21. I think she's definitely stressed...
I could believe seriously depressed. She can't do the "plastic smile" thing very well it seems. Maybe she's just overly worried that the kids will act up, but I detect a cloud of unhappiness that is pervasive. As someone said below, she appears more human at least, because of that. Those Nancy Reagan android smiles are so scary.

22. She is smiling much more since the break
Someone must have coached her off stage. But when the smile breaks she goes back to the deer in the headlights look.

2. She is probably bored stiff.
Why don't they just vote to confirm him now instead of wasting all of our time. We all know the end result. Let's just get on with it.

who is the woman in the dark grey pin stripe.

She appears over Roberts right shoulder when he is answering or evading.

12. She does appear to be suffering
Could just be the spotlight. She doesn't look too happy to be there.

16. Jack is their son, who got a lot of camera time when Bu$h
introduced Roberts as O'Conner's replacement. Jack pranced around and generally acted his age (4 or 5) and was subsequently escorted from the room.

The Daily Show did a hilarious take on Jack's antics and blamed him for Bu$h being so distracted during major speeches.

:D

17. Oh of course - that dancing Jack
A few days back Roberts and his wife could barely herd him into the car when he spied a camera. I was certain he would break out again and pappa had to virtually push him into the car so he could get some face time to himself.
:rofl:

15 minute break has got to help her recover.

19. I thought she was going to sit out the next round
They opened with a photographer shooting the back of Roberts head and then she showed up. A little refreshed, but still scared.
