Gov Mike Huckabee- "the clearest indication yet that President Obama’s campaign promises to be a centrist and think in a bipartisan way were mere rhetoric.”
Minority Speaker Mitch Boehner- “Senate Republicans will treat Judge Sotomayor fairly. But we will thoroughly examine her record to ensure she understands that the role of a jurist in our democracy is to apply the law even-handedly, despite their own feelings or personal or political preferences.”
Michael Steele- “Republicans will reserve judgment on Sonia Sotomayor until there has been a thorough and thoughtful examination of her legal views.”
By looking at some of the other unknown commenters, they are going to attack her for using her "feelings" (her ability to empathize.) When did empathy become a liability? Also, attacking a women for her ability to empathize (or man for that fact) is absolutely rediculous. From what I have heard, she has been a rule of law kind of person. In one instance, ruling against a pro-choice group.
