Frist calls Alito Democrats' "worst nightmare"...

[Imagevision]

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist told Republican Party activists on Friday night that U.S. Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito was the "worst nightmare of liberal Democrats."

Frist was not available for comment following his remarks.

Democrats have expressed concerns the conservative Alito would push the nation's highest court to the right in areas such as abortion rights, civil rights and presidential powers.

No Democrat so far has said he or she would try to block a Senate floor vote on Alito through a procedure known as a filibuste.

4. Letters Show Frist was Notified Of Stocks in 'Blind' Trusts

Frist was given considerable information about his stake in his family's hospital company, according to records that are at odds with his past statements that he did not know what was in his stock holdings.

Managers of the trusts that Frist once described as "totally blind," regularly informed him when they added new shares of HCA Inc. or other assets to his holdings, according to the documents.

Frist had a trustee sell his family's HCA shares in June. The stock falls sharply in July
