"crybaby."

Good response.

Now...as for the substance, this is a pretty devastating article. It articulates something that conservatives I think knew but hadn't quite articulated: she's all about relationship, team, and process. And no one knows anything about her actually ideology. The reason for that is probably because she doesn't have one.

That's not a fault.

In fact, in order to run a large law firm, it would be damn near necessity.

That is why she has been successful in what she has done.

But...to move her onto SCOTUS with no knowledge of her ideology, seems to ...well...I'm not sure that the campaign promise is obviously fulfilled with this. But, as I have said before, it would be pretty naive for us to take that campaign promise literally.

Perhaps you're right about this. But therein lies my breaking point. President Reagan swung for the fences with Robert Bork and unfortunately the ball was snagged from leaving the ball park.

In 1987, there was no internet, no talk radio, no real conservative grass roots movement for Reagan to rely on to fight back. As this National Review article from 1987 points out, the left in 1987 was already well armed for a fight: http://www.nationalreview.com/flashback/flashback200510050806.asp

Where we stand in 2005, there's a calvary of support ready to go to battle for Luttig, Brown, Owen or McConnell. This only adds (I think) to the dismay felt by myself and I assume others...
