In academia, she set the kagan standard saying nominees should be a little more candid. i think she invoked the supreme court nominee privilege to not comment on ongoing cases, yet she did make comments. if you listen to her today, she cade when it came to gun rights and the second amendment, she said that s settled law. she said the same thing about a woman s right to choose and abortion rights. essentially, that s settled law. so very rarely have you had a democratic nominee endorse both gun rights and the right to choose in the same hearing and then be told you didn t say anything. karen, you know, the left would like the fact she talked about abortion rights. the left won t like not everybody, the gun right stuff and the executive power and terror trials. she s trying to put herself in the middle. we know a little more about her political views than her judicial views. she doesn t have judicial experience, unlike harriet meier, who was criticized with
