“What’s important regarding Judge Jackson is that she has a distinguished record as somebody who
has a deep-seated commitment to equal justice under the law,” he said. “The fact that in one
particular case different judges came to different conclusions in no way suggests that she’d be
anything but an outstanding Supreme Court justice.”
