I think Kerry is making a mistake here as are any Dems looking to filibuster Alito. Simply predicting Alito to be a Big Brother rubberstamper is insufficient cause. Bush and the Republican majority in the House and Senate won their seats. The American people through the ballot box knew the SCOTUS was an issue last election and each side expressed their views as to what kind of Justices they wanted when electing the current Congress and POTUS. The people chose accordingly. Whether America is making good or poor decisions in this regard, so be it.
