It's a tough issue to analyze.

If he apointed 56 Dems and 2/3 turned out to take a conservative position on crime, that's fine in my opinion. But I don't know that.

From my perspective, Rudy's position on gun ownership is an absolute loser. That's one issue that was probably addressed in the courts at this level. I'd be curious about those cases.

Dear SJackson,

"If he apointed 56 Dems and 2/3 turned out to take a conservative position on crime, that's fine in my opinion."

I understand your point, but disagree with it.

From family court judges come district court judges, then circuit court judges, and then federal judges and appellate judges.

Folks who are acceptable to us at lower levels, but would be unacceptable at higher levels, we shouldn't give a pass on their appointments to the lower levels, because it's often from that pool that appointments to higher levels are made.
