 [As pointed out by Cass Sunstein, the University of Chicago law professor who wrote the 2001 book republic.com,] Extremists and hate-filled sites tend to attract likeminded people who, if isolated, could come to their senses. ... tend to become more extremist. |
| [At the same time, there is a growing pile of tidbits, in Roberts' opinions and in the Reagan-era documents dribbling out of the White House, that indicates he has strongly held and far-right views on major fronts—abortion, religion, and executive power. There's ammunition for principled opposition to be mined here. But the key attribute Roberts lacks from the point of view of the legal liberals, at least on the record, is an overarching, burn-the-house-down judicial philosophy. As a result, proponents of judicial restraint—an approach to the law that's become as fashionable among liberals as conservatives—are eager to embrace him as one of their own.

| Even though he's been in public life a long time, he's got a pretty sparse record. So I wouldn't be sure in any area. I've got hunches, that's all. |
| He is unquestionably one of the most important figures in the history of American law. |
| He's one of the most interesting senators of our time. The fact that the right was so concerned about him as head of the Judiciary Committee made many people think he'd be very careful in scrutinizing Bush's appointees. But I guess he has proved unpredictable once again. |
| I don't think any new member of the court will expect the court to follow his or her lead. We have nine separate law offices headed by strong-willed people. |
