John McCain's fund-raising Supreme Court push-poll
Edited on Tue Apr-13-10 03:38 PM by REP
The thing speaks for itself:


Supreme Court Survey

Please share your opinions about the recent opening on the Supreme Court by filling out our survey below.

First Name: Last Name:
Address: Address 2:
City: State:
Zip Code: Email Address:


1. Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens has announced he will retire from the United States Supreme Court. It is presumed that President Obama will nominate a liberal judicial nominee to replace Justice Stevens, and this nominee will be subject to confirmation by the United States Senate. Which type of nominee would you like to see fill the vacant seat?

A Judicial Conservative, a justice who believes judges should not legislate from the bench.

A Judicial Liberal, a justice who believes the Constitution is a living document, open to interpretation.

A Judicial Moderate, a justice who balances both conservative and liberal philosophies.

Undecided

2. President Obama has indicated he will announce his choice to replace Justice Stevens very soon and has asked the U.S. Senate for a swift confirmation process. Do you believe Senators should give President Obama’s nominee a swift confirmation?

No, I believe our elected leaders in the Senate have a responsibility to make a careful and educated decision based on a vigorous and thorough examination of the nominee’s qualifications and philosophy.

Yes, I agree with President Obama that Senators should confirm his nominee as quickly as possible, without proper scrutiny of a nominee’s qualifications and philosophy.

Undecided

3. In 2008, President Obama nominated Justice Sonia Sotomayor to serve on the Supreme Court, whom many conservatives thought to be too liberal in her judicial philosophy. Using Justice Sotomayor as an example of the type of nominee President Obama may choose, do you expect to support his next nominee for the Supreme Court?

Yes, President Obama and I share a similar judicial philosophy and I trust he will choose a nominee who shares my views.

No, President Obama has a more liberal judicial philosophy than mine, and I do not anticipate supporting his eventual nominee.

Undecided
