Roberts: WaPo proposes, NYT disposes

wapo...

John G. Roberts Jr. should be confirmed as chief justice of the United States.

nyt...

[T]he unknowns about Mr. Roberts's views remain troubling, especially since he is being nominated not merely to the Supreme Court, but to be chief justice. That position is too important to entrust to an enigma, which is what Mr. Roberts remains. [...] Senators should vote against Mr. Roberts not because they know he does not have the qualities to be an excellent chief justice, but because he has not met the very heavy burden of proving that he does.

suspicion: a wolf in sheep's clothing... prediction: he'll be confirmed...
