In the higher courts, you can see what a judges position is on issues based on what he has ruled in earlier cases; if they've never been a judge before maybe the voters need to be voting based on experience and if they believe the candidate will uphold the rule of law, not whether or not they think abortion should be illegal. If the people of Indiana want someone to overturn Roe v. Wade, they should be voting for the legislators not judges. You have to love, though, how these same groups that are asking the questionnaires are first to rail against "activist judges". <BR/><BR/>Perhaps I'm too ill right now to be posting on such issues, especially since i really really hate right to life groups.danarchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10092525089689651629noreply@blogger.com
