Slime and smear, implication and innuendo, misinterpretation and misunderstanding. That's all the Dems have on Alito.

Someone needs to take this analysis, and apply it to a liberal judge, like Ginsburg, I'll bet the findings would be surprising. Sounds like a Freeper project.

Now some fresh pickings from the Political Grapevine:

In Monday's hearings, Massachusetts Democrat Ted Kennedy expressed concern over an "academic study," which he said showed that Supreme Court Nominee Samuel Alito ruled against individual rights in 84 percent of his dissents — arguing that "average Americans have had a hard time getting a fair shake" in Alito's courtroom.

National Review reports, however, that Kennedy himself commissioned the study by liberal University of Chicago law professor Cass Sunstein. What Kennedy did not mention is that in addition to his statistical conclusions, Professor Sunstein also found that "Judge Alito's opinions are carefully reasoned, well-done, attentive to law, lawyerly, and unfailingly respectful to his colleagues," adding, "the law, fairly interpreted, could well be taken to support" Alito's view.
