re: #58 Charles

Another Sotomayor ruling on abortion seems to indicate that she’s not exactly a dangerous left-wing radical on this issue either: Sotomayor Blurs Lines in Abortion War:

She has also ruled in favor of antiabortion protesters who sued West Hartford, Conn., claiming that police there used excessive force against them at a demonstration

Of course… based on that description, it wasn’t really a ruling “on abortion”. Just sayin’.

(Not that I have much of a dog in the abortion fight, but I think it’s misleading to suggest that Sotomayor has taken a “pro-life” stance, based on what I’ve seen.)
