We already have a very good Justice who should be quite good on these type of problems.
Lets not forget the "hapless toad". When I heard from soon-to-be Chief Justice Roberts, that sold me.
Does anyone in their wildest dreams think that Ms. Miers can even think in those terms, much less write like that????

I like Roberts. I would have preferred to see Thomas or Scalia as Chief Justice, but I can understand that two senate reviews are better than three. Roberts will stand up for business, certainly, but I believe he also will prove to be a social conservative and strict constructionist. I only hope that his concern for the text of the constitution will outweigh his respect for stare decisis, because there are a lot of standing SCOTUS decisions that must be overturned before we can return to strict construction.
