Just a couple of quotes from the New York Times last night should make our Democrats think very hard about John Roberts' nomination.
A Year of Work to Sell Roberts to Conservatives
"For people like me who are reading the tea leaves, it is another marker that we can breathe easy," said Austin Ruse, president of the Culture of Life Foundation, a conservative Catholic group."
Culture of Life
This group is comfortable with Roberts. Since they appear to oppose not only abortion, but birth control, and much stem cell research....then the fact they are "breathing easy" is making me uncomfortable.
Also, Dobson's Focus on the Family has been kept informed, and they know pretty much about him as well.
"On Wednesday, Professor George joined a conference call for reporters with James C. Dobson, founder of Focus on the Family, to discuss their support for Judge Roberts. They said they knew more about his legal thinking than conservatives had known about Justice David H. Souter, a Republican appointee and a disappointment to them."

Looks like if our Democrats don't at least speak out on this, then women will be the ones to lose some rights this time.
