Big mistake IMO.
The only female on the national and international scene worth much in the last 40 years was Thatcher. The rest are what a rational person would call equivocal and unable stand the backlash if they said, No, to the Womens Moment and abortion. The Constitution is not foremost in the mind of female Justices - competing with men is foremost in their mind.
Let the flaming begin...

I'm female and right there with you. Kristi Noem is the other woman in leadership who seems to have a spine.

Thatcher had a black heart.
She violently hated the Irish, and many injustices were carried out upon them in her name.

Phyllis Schlafley was a woman who could stand up to the left. Not a politician, but an activist.

Definitely not going to flame you--you put into words exactly what a little voice in my head has been saying to me lately. Time will tell--hopefully she will exceed our expectations.

Sorry. Disagree. I understand the sentiment & there are plenty of examples given previous women on the Supreme Court or wishy washy suburban women voters. That said- men are hardly a paragon of unwavering certitude. Need we be reminded of David Souter, Anthony Kennedy & Chief Justice John Roberts to name a few. Not to mention the leagues of former & present "conservative" male politicians: Romney, McCain, the Bushes, etc. If you want to make the argument that females run a slightly higher risk than males of going soft, I'd grant you that. But that hardly means that all women should be discounted due to that. If you use that logic, than any male will be perfect. Hows the male Chief Justice John Roberts working out for you? Not so good, huh? How about just finding excellent candidates, regardless? If you took the stance that any black person on the court would come with biases & go soft- we wouldn't have Justice Clarence Thomas. He has been the most conservative justice in this nation's history- even eclipsing Justice Antonin Scalia. Similarly, if we had rejected Scalia because he comes from New York/New Jersey, given that he was raised in a region of the country that isn't very conservative- we would have been cheated out of having his amazing opinions and rulings. I think Alito is following in their footsteps. Gorsuch & Kavanaugh are newer- but I suspect they also follow that tradition as well. There are plenty of staunch women out there who would stay true to conservatism & the constitution. I'm one of them 😉
