Two reasons why I like John Roberts

Reason #1.
Simply put, Roberts has not met his burden. He has not demonstrated that he is in the mainstream as a jurist. He has not demonstrated that his judicial philosophy is in the mainstream.
Reason #2.
WASHINGTON -- Supreme Court nominee John G. Roberts Jr.'s testimony about the existence of a right to privacy, the importance of respecting precedent, and the need for the Constitution to adapt to changing conditions has alarmed some rank-and-file conservatives, who are filling up Internet message boards with predictions that Roberts may turn out to be a moderate justice.
Having both the far right and the far left scared is about the best that I could hope for in a Bush nominee.
