This guy is with the CATO Institute?

VP of legal affairs. Probably a lawyer. I've noticed that the most virulent critics of Gingrich's proposals regarding reigning in the court are lawyers.

Which leads to an interesting question -- are they in fact the experts in the matter whose opinions should be considered over a non-lawyer politician's position, or are they so indoctrinated in the "power of the courts" that the suggestion simply destroys their worldview?

I'll go with the latter.
It is usually the lawyers who most hate jury nullification, too.
