you know what you get with scalia. i don't agree with his judicial philosopy in general but outside of bush v. gore i think his votes are in line with his stated philosophy and aren't overly political. i'd be surprised if he repeats arizona.
Good comments. More fair to Scalia than what I've seen in the press lately. We'll see!
