From the article:
That could establish a large conservative majority on the court
for years. With conservatives in full control, the court would
probably overturn Roe vs. Wade and the national right to have an
abortion. The justices also could give religion a greater role in
government and the schools, and block the move toward same-sex
marriage.
If elected, Obama would be hard-pressed
to create a truly liberal court. But by replacing the aging liberal
justices with liberals, he could preserve abortion rights and
maintain a strict separation of church and state.
Nothing like a little
leftist fear-mongering. The LA Times wants you to believe that
the moderate McCain will appoint justices who will take the court
to the far right, while the liberal Obama will maintain the status
quo.
