Also Grasz rated as not qualified.

And there are many reasons to question that rating.

I guess we will see how he turns out. But that nom was pushed by home-state senator, and more due diligence may have stopped them from being blindsided by ABA. (I think the ABA letter had very concerning things in it that were overshadowed by misguided focus on the Casey article)
-
Perhaps, but the author of the report has also taken highly partisan positions on judges in the recent past (eg opposition to Alito). Not a neutral source.
-
I highly recommend reading the congressional testimony on Grasz. There was an issue about a serious breach of confidentiality--a real red flag for a judicial nominee.
-
That was fair concern - and worthy of examination- yet that was not what ABA report focused on.
-
I think the report is difficult to pin down. It certainly talks about abortion. But it seemed to focus more on concerns about politics vs law. It noted the unprecedentedly high # of attys who said that they couldn't talk to the ABA bc they were worried about political reprisals
-
Maybe you think that was a smokescreen for Roe issues. But the report authors stressed the former rather than the latter. And I have to say that I found it chilling.
