legally qualified . . . Alito

Alito is firmly in the realm of this country's best legal minds.

My question to the studied constitutional scholars who made these opinions is, exactly what was your methodology for coming to these conclusions?

Or, are you just repeating something you heard on the radio? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I support Alito because those commentators, writers and politicians whose opinions I value and who study such things have spoken favorably of him. I suspect many people support his nomination for the same reasons but for whatever reason this is not something people like to say. Whether or not that is sufficient reason for someone to grant the approval of my support is of no concern to me.

Also its worth noting, 90% of the courts decisions will not effect me. However I still strongly support his nomination almost entirely because those people who I tend not to like and who vote incorrectly are oppossed to his nomination. Again in a word spite. I suspect this is pretty common as well.
