Rove should be thankful.
LOL!! He's not extreme right. If he were, he would not have sailed through the CoA vote with only 3 nays (Kennedy, Durbin, and Schumer). Sounds like hes more of the Rehnquist mold than a Thomas or Scalia.

Becasue I have very little info on him, I reserved judgement until I heard/read what democraticunderground, Schumer, and PAW had to say. They're not happy, which in turn, makes me happy. Not my ideal pick, but a solid conservative pick.
