Does anyone not think Kagan is going to be seated?

[Perky]

The GOP has nothing on her.... apparently....Which may be a "kinda sorta" bad thing for those wanting a progressive on the bench....but looks like this one is pretty much a non-fight.

1. Yep. The Repubs will get their Souter, and the corporate court will move right.

They own the game now, we're all serfs. Nobody really seems to care outside of a few political junkies, so this is just how it is.

4. and exactly how do you know that Kagan will move the court to the right?

Please cite to specific rulings where her vote might be different than Stevens. You obviously have studied this closely.

5. They did a good job of burying info, but have you seen these memos?

This was pretty big news. Surprised you haven't seen it.

6. yes i have and I don't see anything in them to suggest that she would depart

from Stevens' position on any issue that has come or is like to com before the court. Please show me where I'm wrong.

7. I don't have time to do your homework. Everything's in the article. n/t

[onenote]

13. there's nothing in the article to suggest Kagan would have or will rule differently than stevens

There, I did your homework for you.

2. People aren't paying attention to it

Too many other things going on. Any anti-Kagan movement will not get off the ground.

8. What about fiscal issues? I'd feel better if you could show me a link to reassure me there. nt

[jenmito]

9. Sorry, but I'm not posting links to reassure you. You can "do your homework" if you want to

know her position of fiscal issues. I posted what I read.

12. Ha! +1. nt

[AtomicKitten]

10. I find that reassuring. Thanks for posting this. nt

11. My pleasure. I was happy to hear it reported on FaceThe Nation yesterday. n/t

14. Kagan will get between 70 and 75 votes.

So far no one in the Senate has even tried to lead a charge against her.
