Is Clement another Souter?
A judge with a thin, generally conservative record, who wants to go with the flow in the Supreme Court and doesn't embrace the idea that the text of the Constitution should be interpreted as it was written as Scalia and Thomas believe it should be.
We thought we elected Bush not to give us another Anthony Kennedy or David Souter.
Update: Bush defenders like Limbaugh and Hannity are drinking Bush Kool-Aid today. The point isn't that we have to wait and hold off judgment on her conservative credentials -- it's that Bush appears to have put up someone who's not clearly an originalist.
This appointment might be the only one that Bush will have. Let him keep his campaign promise on this one.
