The likely performance of an appointee to the Supreme Court is speculative, first because appointees have on occasion created records that were both better and worse than might have been guessed from their background; and second, because the relative importance of issues can shift and new issues can and do arise. As to the relative importance of certain issues, it may well be that church-state relationships will in the next few years become of greater concern than civil rights, on which the executive, legislative and judicial record has now been fairly well established.
