“...Sonia Sotomayor, who seemed to back the Second Amendment in confirmation hearings...”

No she did not. She never backed the true meaning or the straw men meanings of the second amendment and that info was widely known at the time. The NRA backing her was the NRA backing gun control.

Back her? Why did the NRA score that vote? They opposed Sotomayor. All the rats in the Senate have that vote on their record. Now those rats are in a bind with Kagan's vote.

FOR THE FIRST time in its 138-year history, the National Rifle Association is counting the votes on a Supreme Court nominee in its ratings of senators. That means senators -- including members of the Judiciary Committee who are due to vote on Sonia Sotomayor on Tuesday -- will have to choose between voting for the first Hispanic nominee and getting high marks from the premier gun rights organization, which opposes her confirmation.
