I have the same problem with these "facts" that I have with similar statements of support. Most of this stuff is extrapolation from events without context framed and worded to elicit a specific response. In this case negative..Have seen similiar stuff to elicit a positive response. I suppose the reason we are dealing in what I call "nits and lice" is there are no real positions she has taken that are clearly identified and unambigous and that indicate a specific philosophy. Without those clear positions as a backdrop we are reduced to reading the fairly sparce tea leaves and the beauty of the beholder becomes highly debateable. For example I am more troubled that she supported a forum for feminine advancement than that the first speaker in that forum (whom she probably did not pick) was a radical leftist Gloria Steinem. That shows me more about how she might rule on affirmative action cases than whether she is a radical leftist. All of this lack of real data is why I would have to vote no right now if I had a vote.. I still look forward to the hearings hoping they can provide enough insight to change my mind but it may be a stretch.

exactly..I am hoping that BUSH is TOTALLY RIGHT with this pick but I am left with no data to support that fact.
As many have posted we could have done much better and if forced to fight in the senate the education of the American public to the politics of destruction would have energized the 06 elections..but we are left with a question mark for a candidate which looks like
crony-ism.
