I'm "shocked" that there is not a shred of experience among them in criminal defense, legal services, or civil rights. All people whose careers have been devoted to preserving wealth & power.

Do you get any argument? By now many of us on the left understand this all too well.
-
Not much argument (bc the people who tend to talk to me about this subject understand its importance), but in practice, Dems just don't prioritize this issue (despite the efforts of orgs like
@ACSlaw and@AFJustice). -
I think the key difference is liberals haven't identified a single issue they can galvanize non lawyers around in churches, schools, etc. at a young age, ie Roe.
-
I totally agree with you. Gun control in the wake of Parkland made me wonder, but that's really more of a political than legal issue (so few true Second Amendment cases).

How conservative is he on a scale of 1 to 10?
-
As a district judge, I'd call him center-right, pretty moderate - maybe 7 out of 10 (with 10 as most conservative). But the circuit court is much more political than the district court, of course.

Thanks. Would you call St. Eve the same?
-
Yup - which is why I think the Illinois senators have signed off on her - they know that they're not going to get much better from the
@RealDonaldTrump administration. -
Did NY Senators sign off on Sullivan?
