And the nominee is...

John G. Roberts. He looks pro-life enough to torque off the Democrats in the Senate, but it may take years before we know what that translates to in practical terms. He's given some ambiguous answers on Roe v. The Human Race – he argued against it before the Court as a lawyer, but admitted that it was the established "law of the land" at his 2003 confirmation hearings. On the bright side of that, he was being interrogated by the Senate Judiciary committee, which has a history of snatching and snarling in cur-like fashion at any hint of respect for life.

Here's hoping!
