What d'ye think would happen if Alito sighed and told the Senate Judiciary Committee that Rove v. Wade was indeed "settled law" and he couldn't think of a good reason to overturn it?
Ya suppose Karl Rove and that aging Court Toady Andy Card would burst in with butterfly nets and a straitjacket to drag off Judge Alito?
Just how would the White House spin his abrupt "withdrawal"?
Ptomaine poisoning? Bad clams? Or maybe the old "We nominated the WRONG Sam Alito...their social security numbers differ by only one digit?!!!" routine?
Well, whatever, but remember the above thought experiment in due course, Alito won't interpret the law hell will implement an ideology.
