I heard Romney praise Scalia, Thomas, Alito and Roberts in a recent debate. If I could believe he'd really appoint more like those, I'd feel a lot better about Romney. To their credit, the Bush's appointed three of those men. I'd really like to believe Romney would follow the Bush pattern. So I searched on his record of judicial appointments as governor and was disappointed. The excuse his supporters give is he was governor of liberal MA and his appointments were the best he could get. I don't know. While I was looking at some of this, I ran across a reminder that one of his environmental advisors was John Holdren. Seriously, John Holdren? Somehow I have a hard time believing the liberal political environment forced him to cozy up to the likes of this madman. Fact is, Romney's political record (on important issues like government health care and environmentalism and judicial appointments) is NOT reassuring.
