KAGAN RECUSALS: “Kagan should be very clear about what sorts of cases and what issues she believes she will be recused from. This is critical not only in determining her ethical posture but also in figuring out whether Democrats will be ‘down a vote’ for some period of time. Is she going to opine on the constitutionality of ObamaCare? On Guantanomo cases? On this, the Senate should insist on clear and definitive answers. After all, it goes directly to her ability to perform the job for which she has been nominated.”
