  •  I'm also concerned about Roberts (none / 0)

    because he is probably more adept in forming majorities on the Court, and thus advancing the conservative cause.  A Chief Justice Scalia would alienate Kennedy, possibly Miers as well, and would prevent Breyer from continuing his right-ward movement.

    I'm really concerned about Justice Breyer, I don't rule out a significant rightward movement by him on social issues.

    •  Must take closer look at Breyer (none / 0)

      It sounds bad.

      Good point re: Roberts not alienating others, as Scalia would.

      I guess our best option is to get Democrats back in power so they can legislate liberally.  And they had better do so.  I'm spending a lot of effort on them.
