I hear Edith Clement specializes in maritime law. No one knows much else about her. May not be a good thing.

Maritime law? As in pirates and such, mate?

I read that Clement is a member of the Federalist Society -- that is usually a good sign.

That background would be helpful for overturning U.S. legal precedent in favor of following WTO regulations.

Sounds like Edith Clement is being seriously looked at.

And, the attacks are starting. After reading only praise for her the past couple days, there are now attacks starting to form on this thread saying she is "not conservative."

The dynamics of people's interaction is fascinating.

Until there was serious chance she was going to be picked, nobody said a peep but she would be a great pick.

Now that it looks like she is seriously in the running here, people are suddenly asking if she is conservative.

Well, where were you yesterday, you gadflies? Where were you criticizing her record before?

I frankly don't know what her record is, but I would have thought I would have seen some criticism on here when she was a dark horse candidate if there was something to be concerned about.
