Precedent from Ginsburg hearing

Judge John Roberts will — and should — follow the example set by Ruth Bader Ginsburg, appointed to the Court in 1993 by President Clinton:

Justice Ginsburg declined to answer questions about her views on both prospective and many historical Supreme Court cases. She also declined to answer questions (or gave non-responsive answers to questions) involving a number of controversial issues, hypothetical facts, or areas in which she is not an expert.
