It's Roberts's nomination to lose. He needs to please the Republican conservative base and more-centrist Democrats, ... If he comes across as an ideologue - as anti-civil rights, anti-women's rights - he will lose. If he stonewalls, he's finished. But it's inconceivable ... that he will open himself up like that.  -   Sheldon Goldman     Quotes
