Do you know many constitutional judges like that? We are looking for moral & originalist judges who will not legislate from the bench, not special ops leaders.

“Do you know many constitutional judges like that? We are looking for moral & originalist judges who will not legislate from the bench, not special ops leaders.”

I’ve posted a number of times on judicial topics that nominees (whether for the SC or lower courts) should be strict constructionist, original intent lawyers. My point in the post you responded to is that the nominee should also be willing to withstand any attack to remain true to those principles. Principle is absolutely required, but the candidate must also be willing to withstand attacks from the left without flinching or wavering.

If this candidate can do that, that’s great. Can he?
