Opposing Soto Isn't Anti-Woman

Connie Mackey, Senior Vice President for FRCAction:
I reject the admonition of Senator Chuck Schumer that opposing the nomination of Sonia Sotomayor will cause the Republican Party to lose women's vote permanently.  I believe his crystal ball is cloudy when it comes to women in America.  Women think independently and most women will see that Sonia Sotomayor is a judicial activist who will use the courts to make policy reflective of her own personal judgments as opposed to ruling based upon the tenets put forth by the Constitution.  Her career as an activist is well-documented and disqualifies her from taking the 9th seat on the United States Supreme Court.
