She has advised the President on all of his federal Judicial nominations. There is no way she could do that without revealing a tremendous amount about her judicial philosphy. I would suggest the President knows much more about this nomination that he did about Judge Roberts.
Yes, I also believe the same.

My opinion of him and confidence in him is demonstrated by the fact that I nominated him to one of the highest officers in the land. I did this on the basis of my knowledge of him and my appreciation of his great qualities. Every contact I’ve had with him since he came to Washington and all I've heard about him, has served only to increase my confidence and my high opinion. He is one of the finest public servants this country has ever produced. I have no further comments because I can’t think of anything else to say." President Dwight D. Eisenhower on Supreme Court nominee Earl Warren, Feb 21, 1954
Great point. And equally important is that those blue-chip conservatives who have been involved closely with her in that process from the outside, such as Leonard Leo, are big supporters.
The conservatives most familiar with her views are her biggest supporters. That says a lot to me. As does the fact that those who know the least about her views are complaining the loudest.
