Samuel Alito

Instapundit has an initial roundup of Samuel Alito talk. Right now, I'm cautiously optimistic, but I can definitely say that it's a lot better pick than Miers ever was.

Update: While some are saying that he's like Scalia, Orin Kerr is saying he's more like Roberts.

Being more like Roberts eases some of my cautious optimism as well. The confirmation hearing will be interesting to say the least. It's always fun to see how liberals will spin their disdain for a strict constitutionalist. Provided that is what Alito turns out to be.
