John Roberts' Subtle, Incremental Plan to Move the Supreme Court to the Right

Post by MachineGhost »

Roberts has not passed this test. With a handful of exceptions, the 5-4 split in ideologically significant cases remains persistent and profound. His stewardship over the last nine terms suggests he is less focused on consensus building than on leading an incremental, tactically savvy shift to the right.
