Notice: Function _load_textdomain_just_in_time was called incorrectly. Translation loading for the wp-pagenavi domain was triggered too early. This is usually an indicator for some code in the plugin or theme running too early. Translations should be loaded at the init action or later. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information.

Ideologically, where the Court is now reflects the fact that since since the 1968 election, we have had 28 years of Republicans and only 12 (and a half) years of Democrats in the White House. That’s what the country elected; that’s what the country wanted at the time. Time’s they’re a changin’… perhaps.
No one expects Sonia Sotomayor to start voting like Antonin Scalia… except, evidently, my commenter above. Souter is doubtless more progressive than Sotomayor, especially on “crime and punishment” issues… but Sotomayor is simply not going to vote with the conservative bloc most of the time.
Roe v. Wade was largely eviscerated before Sotomayor stepped on the bench, and in any event, affluent women will always have options… and isn’t that what America is about? As for free speech… affluent Americans will always have options… and isn’t that what America is about?
The Court is and has been and will only be moreso about protecting the financially well-off and otherwise powerful from incursions against their wealth and power, be it by government or their inferiors… and isn’t that what America is all about?
And who would you like better? Solicitor General Kagan who has already come out in favor of “preventive detention,” the bedrock policy of any self-respecting autocracy?
The perfect remains the enemy of the good. I just don’t see the problem on this one. The probable departures of Stevens and Ginsberg later in Obama’s first term will be more interesting; and most interesting of all will be if one of the conservative members leaves… but this is just not something I see getting all upset about. Not like Scam Alito or John the Robot Roberts, both of which required John Kerry losing.
