Something a lot of folks don't understand about Catholicism is that beliefs within the whole of Catholicism are as diverse as they are within Protestantism. Maybe we'll all be lucky and find that since clerking for Scalia, Coney aspired to the Supreme Court and created a persona, almost cartoonish in its right wing extremism to the point that one would reasonably expect that she would be viewed by political types as safely dogmatic and appointable.

It isn't unheard of for those with more extremist bents to moderate their views once on the bench. David Souter was a good example of that as, I think Roberts is turning out to be. So there's hope?
