[Still Thinking]

This is the usual Oh-my-God article that is wrong about activities on the Supreme Court. John Roberts will only improve the Court by half a Justice. That's because Justice O'Connor voted in favor of the Constitution about half the time in her 22 years.

Are you actually confident he'll do the Constitutional think all the time, or close to it? If so, that would ease my mind some, but it seems a little farfetched, since it would make him easily the best justice, bar none.

From a pile of research in John Roberts' decisions and his advice memos in the Justice Department, I strongly believe that Roberts is in the Scalia mode. He won't I think, be as absolute as Thomas. But Thomas is so willing to overturn precedent as to represent a risk to the Court's future.

As much as I admire Thomas for his intellectual rigor, I'd be a bit nervous if Roberts were in his mold. That's the quick version of what I could discuss ad nauseum for hours.
