I agree that we're trying to nominate people who will interpret the constitution and uphold the rule of law. I'm just not sure we need to leave that to chance when there are known quanitites out there. Our president has left us with a "trust me" candidate. And our president is a politician, like all other presidents.
I think there are lots of reasons to be worried about this nomination, but her marital status isn't one of them. I can't even understand why anyone makes an issue of it. How is her marital status anybody else's business? Is being married (or not) is a qualification for the Supreme Court?
And a misunderestimated one at that. :)
