Power Line

Steven Hayward at No Left Turns reminds us that conservatives doubted Sandra Day O'Connor's merit as a Supreme Court judge even at the time she was nominated. George Will nailed it when he wrote, "Having shown little inclination toward jurisprudential theory, she is unlikely to supply what this Court most needs." And Terry Eastland was concerned that "O'Connor's views on the Constitution and her understanding of judicial review are largely unknown."

Hayward concludes: "This is why it is essential that President Bush nominate someone that the Left regards as an 'extremist,' as only an 'extremist' can be relied upon to defend the Constitution rather than regard it as a plaything for social engineering."
