Poll finds public support for Alito lags behind Roberts
Early support for Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito is considerably weaker among such key groups as evangelicals, Republicans and the wealthy than it was for John Roberts, an AP-Ipsos poll found.
The survey put public sentiment for Alito closer to the level of early backing for the failed nomination of Harriet Miers.
Our first in the Alito nomination reminds the American people how we came to this nomination a complete capitulation by President Bush to the demands of the radical right of his party. The ad reminds the American people that the right-wing Alito is nominated to replace the far more mainstream conservative Sandra Day O Connor, the swing vote who safeguarded many of our most precious rights and liberties.
There won’t be any hearings until January 9.
