Here are the results of our Elena Kagan poll.

And here are your comments.

From Infidel753 on May 19, 2010 at 11:44 am.

We really do need more info. Obama’s apparent instinct for avoiding fights worries me. Kagan could be on the Supreme Court for decades — she and Sotomayor could be Obama’s most enduring legacy.

From Lisa G. on May 16, 2010 at 9:39 am.

The more I hear about her, the less I like her. That being said, I voted I need more info.

From Cellophane on May 15, 2010 at 2:04 pm.

Her stuttering performance before the Supremes didn’t do much for my confidence in her.

‘Yes’ and ‘I need more info’ finished in a dead heat. I voted “need more info”, because I feel we don’t know enough about her. However I lean toward ‘Yes’. President Barack Obama is the most formidable Constitutional scholar to occupy the White House in the last century and beyond. While we do not know enough about where Kagan stands on key areas of Constitutional interpretation, I am confident that Obama does. He has earned the opportunity to redeem the court from GOP extremism. Conversely, if Kagan joins the corporatist SCOTUS majority, which I doubt, I will feel betrayed by Obama, not Kagan.

The current poll is on the GOP Gulf Gusher.

Enjoy!

Tom, you said:

“While we do not know enough about where Kagan stands on key areas of Constitutional interpretation, I am confident that Obama does.”

Thank you! I, for one am sick and tired of people who know none of the facts, know nothing about the people involved but want to put in their two cents worth about matters of which they are clueless.

Who better than Obama to know Kagan’s qualifications? We elected him, now let’s trust him.

  Charles, in some areas, I criticize Obama, but I’d like to think I have a valid basis for doing so. In this case, I agree.

I wait for the Senate confirmation hearing to hear what inane shit the Repubs have come up with. That’s always my favorite part.

  You know it will be that she hates the military, when the opposite is true.
