We want to be fair and perform due diligence on nominees. We are trying to figure out not just how he might rule on an issue but what his approach is.

You want someone who doesn't rule by gut reaction but will decide based on a commitment to core constitutional principles. Jon Davidson

![It seemed to us important to judge [Roberts] on the basis of what we knew about him. He has not manifested, in the testimony that he provided, the sort of commitment to constitutional rights that are important to our community to deserve to be confirmed. If they want our support for another nominee, they're going to have to do better. That seems to be an important message to send. - Jon Davidson Quotes](/pic/img/img.php?text=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&author=ICBKb24gRGF2aWRzb24gICAg&num=7 "It seemed to us important to judge [Roberts] on the basis of what we knew about him.
