If justices followed the Constitution there would be no swing votes.

Sounds like it’s not to be you. Why is that?

Translation: The Supreme Court may not have a wishy washy asociate justice who votes a “popular” vote depending on which way the poliical winds are blowing.
What is a “moderate” supreme court justice? A justice with too few constiutional principles of their own to be chosen to be on the court, if presidents and senators really knew what they were doing when such a justice was vetted.

The words “swing” and Kagan should never be used together.
The use of swing, Kagan and Sotomayer in the same sentence calls for immediate arrest, imprisonment and solitary confinement.

It’s kind of sad that most justices are that polarized, actually. Some issues / cases should really be judged from a nonpartisan position.
Ex Obamacare. The judges who voted for it obviously had to IGNORE the one thing they are to base their decision upon, the Constitution.

Obviously, Kagan has no clue about the constitution or the SCOTUS. But we all knew that going in, including the idiot that appointed her.

Kagan and Sotomayor are invalid appointments. Made by a marxist muslim usurper. It’s time to remove those ceckless communist funts from the bench.

There is no requirement for a "swing vote" in the Supreme Court, just as there is not a required number of right-middle-left justices.

So for roughly 200 years then there was no “swing” vote... and that’s a problem, that it won’t have one now???

Just where in the Constitution is there anything that says there should be a swing vote? Is it in the same place as the provision for penumbra, privacy, and abortion?
Does she even contemplate that there could possibly be 9 conservative origionalists on the Supreme Court?
Swing vote? What a total ass!

So Kagan has admitted SHE is a doctrinaire leftist who does not consider each case objectively.

In my opinion Kagan ‘The Wise Latina’ is the one who does not have a judicial temperament. In fact the hag is breaking longstanding Supreme Court custom by remarking upon and getting politics about a Supreme Court nominee before during the Senate confirmation process.
