However, the fact that he's a current member of the Federalist Society and that he worked for Ronald Reagan's White House, gives some insight.
You get what you pay for - here's a site:
John G. Roberts Jr. From dKosopedia, the free political encyclopedia.
From everything I've read, it appears Mr. Roberts is at least as conservative as O'Connor, but that's not saying all that much. It's a pretty safe bet he's not another Souter considering his Republican connections from the past. But it's also likely he's not another Scalia or Thomas. As Ann Coulter points out, he's 50 years old and has never written or said anything controversial, LOL!
It'll probably take a couple of years' worth of rulings before we find out who we have here. That's what bothers Coulter, and it bothers me. I would've been much more comfortable with Luttig or Olson. Why does Bush believe he has to go with a stealth candidate when the country is obviously more conservative than liberal?
