“Scalito’s Way” — The Alito Nomination: Reactions from the Blogosphere

Confirm AlitoToday’s top story: President Bush has nominated Judge Samuel Alito for the Supreme Court.

SCOTUSBlog offers this brief biography:

Judge Alito currently serves on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. Prior to his nomination to the Third Circuit by President George H.W. Bush, he served as U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey (1987-1990), Deputy Assistant Attorney General (1985-1987), and Assistant to the Solicitor General (1981-1985).

Judge Alito was born in 1950 in Trenton NJ. He attended Princeton University and Yale Law School. He clerked for Judge Leonard I. Garth on the Third Circuit.

According to Law.com, Judge Alito is a man called “The Mild-Mannered Scalia.” He represents conservative principles that we can all gather behind.

“Personality-wise, on the bench and in person, Alito is no Scalia.

Though he’s a frequent dissenter and not at all afraid to disagree with his colleagues, Alito’s opinions are usually devoid of passion. And his tone during oral arguments is probing but always polite.
. . .

On the hot-button issues, Alito has been consistently conservative.”

In the days, weeks and months ahead, there will be much written about this nomination. A battle is surely afoot.

We’ve provided a preliminary round-up here. But we know there’s much more being said.

    President Bush’s choice of Alito for the Supreme Court already has the liberals ready for a fight! The moaning and groaning has begun, and it may last through the winter, if Harry Reid has anything to do with it!
