The guy is a solid conservative by any reasonable measure.

There was never any reason for conservatives to stress out about any of the 4, all would be reliably conservative.

Look up False Prophet's posts in the last hour. He gives an excellent description. He believes he's between Alito and Gorsuch.

I think the only concern some on the Right have about him is his opinion on impeaching Presidents ... he wrote it while working for Ken Starr during the Clinton Investigation.

He also clerked for Kennedy which might make some worry that he'll rule equally liberal in social cases.

Yes.

Kavanaugh is likely to be more conservative than Justice Kennedy on a range of social issues. At the top of that list is abortion. A more conservative majority could be more willing to uphold state restrictions on abortion, if not overturn the 45-year-old landmark Roe v. Wade decision that established a woman’s constitutional right.

Kennedy’s replacement also could be more willing to allow states to carry out executions and could support undoing earlier court holdings in the areas of racial discrimination in housing and the workplace. Kennedy provided a decisive vote in 2015 on an important fair housing case.

A lot of people were, doesn't mean you can't learn from your mistakes and recognize what is right and act on it.

He’s probably the equivalent of Kennedy.

Gave he blueprint to Roberts on how to spin the law to make Obamacare constitutional.

Rather than a Gorsuch 2.0 or a Scalia clone, we got a Roberts/Kennedy clone as the nominee.

Hopefully, Rand Paul saves us from this disaster.
