The Republicans (and, to a lessor extent, the Democrats) have been fucking up with SCOTUS nominations for decades. I honestly do not think politicians understand anything about the Supreme Court if they seriously believe they can reduce a nominee to the sum of his/her expressed views and then accurately predict what s/he will do with legal issues that aren't even on the horizon right now. The more you tighten your litmus test, the more mod-libs will slip through your fingers.
