en the best chance to raise doubts or concerns about Roberts' record, his reasoning, his views.

en Judge Roberts' civil rights record and views remained the most controversial and unexplained part of his record when the Judiciary Committee hearing concluded, just as his civil rights record and views had been the most controversial part of his record when the hearing began,

en Preliminary views of Judge Roberts' record suggest areas of significant concern,

en I have too many doubts about the direction a Roberts court will take us. Persistent, nagging doubts,

en If a judge has strong political views, it is perfectly appropriate to inquire whether those views would affect their legal reasoning and cause them not to be objective and fair.
