From what little I know about this subject, it seems to me that maybe the constitution should be amended to add a clear right to privacy since currently it is not too difficult to interpret it as having none by many jurists.
In answer to the original question, I don't believe that Roe vs. Wade will be overturned anytime soon, regardless of the Roberts nomination. But since there seem to be so many jurists who do not interpret a right to privacy in the constitution, it wouldn't surprise me if it is eventually overturned.
What these guys say now and what they have done in the past seems to change frequently once they have the lifetime job.
