What are her thought on 2-A?

That is all that will determine a hard no for me.

That doesn't mean that she would not agree with placing onerous limits on it. The elimination of RvW is not going to happen but there are limits that must be put in place (limit to 1st trimester, etc...)

On the plus side:
-her parents are direct from Cuba and moved the family to USA to flee from Castro's communist regime.
-she's a Federalist Society memeber

There are legal ways to erode Roe v. Wade without completely overturning it.

I think her responses are typical. In fact I think Kav made similar responses.

Roe v Wade is the law of the land right now.

She's a Souter but I'm confident Daddy will pick Amy.

This is the right answer for all intermediate court of appeals. Supreme Court is binding law. We should celebrate that. Her answer may not be the same as a justice.

OP, you are reading her answer wrong.

She is saying Roe v Wade is binding precedent for the Circuit court for which she was being appointed for, which is correct.

That doesn't mean she would or wouldn't overturn it while on the Supreme Court.

Are those questions from when she was appointed to a judgeship? For a lower court, that is the correct answer, not the Supreme Court though.

Repubs are scared because no one wants roe gone. There will have to be some clever maneuvering here.

You are misreading this completely. She is saying that as a Federal Court judge, she would faithfully follow decided SC precedent. As a conservative should.

As a Justice, she would not be bound by this.

What else would you expect her to say under questioning for a lower court judgeship?

"I won't follow the precedent set by the Supreme Court when I hear cases in my lower court position. I will use my lower court position to overrule the Supreme Court's decision."

If she's on the Supreme Court THEN she can use her position to overturn a previous SC decision.

Dumb.
