(Washington - AP) — US Senator Jim Jeffords says he will oppose the nomination of Samuel Alito to the US Supreme Court.
Jeffords says that while he believes Alito is qualified to serve on the court, he does not believe the country would be served by his judicial philosophy.
The independent senator says that he does not believe Alito fully appreciates the limits on the power of the presidency.

US Senator Jim Jeffords says he will oppose the nomination of Samuel Alito to the US Supreme Court.
Jeffords says that while he believes Alito is qualified to serve on the court,...I see Jim Jeffords subscribes to the John Kerry method of decision making.

This headline from the magazine "DUH!"
No surprise here. He was one of only 2 "Republican" senators to vote against Clarence Thomas too. The other was Bob Packwood. He got what was coming to him too.
