Could someone make a list of Kagan's right wing tendencies, at least when it comes to jurisprudence? I mean, she does not have that much of a paper trail, and some stuff of not much import perhaps to the contrary, so I would be interested as to the source of all of this "progressive" angst. Thanks!
I think people just hate to see a great man go, only to be replaced by an unknown.. and one who is unlikely to be as left-leaning as he was.
The truth is that among female justices, only Ginsburg was any good, but it is also generally true that people tend to move left on the Court rather than right, so this Kagan might not be all bad. Once she stops having to worry about popular opinion and politicians and so forth, she may do the 'right' thing.True and despite progressive concerns about Sotomayor she turned out pretty decent too.
