I'm disappointed because I wanted to stay about three weeks. |
It's yet to be determined how Roberts will deal with important decisions. I don't know his position on issues like stem-cell research, abortion or affirmative action. These are things that someone may attempt to bring to the Supreme Court. |
Of course, the republicans are going to vote with their party line, but the democrats couldn't find a good reason not to vote for him. After the hearings, what good reason would a person have to vote against the guy? |
This decision is very critical to the courts, as well as the president with all the other problems concerning public opinion. It's indicated that O'Conner was the swing-voter, so this position is more critical than Roberts'. If I was to advise the president, I would suggest he appoint someone more moderate like O'Conner. I would want someone who may vote with me and the other justices sometimes, and sometimes not. |
