Tentative Conclusion: Alito is a Populist

After consultation with my populist friends, we have come to a tentative conclusion that U.S. Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito is a populist. Here are 10 indicators that show that Alito deserves our support:

(1) Alito seems to be a normal man.
(2) Alito seems to be a good family man: husband, father and son.
(3) Alito's mother seems to be a traditional Italian American mother based her non-scripted comment that he's obviously pro-life. You can know a son by the mother.
(4) Alito's free speech jurisprudence favors the common man
(5) Alito's free exercise jurisprudence understands the common man -- personally, I've always enjoyed a Santa Claus or Christmas bunny at the edge of my Nativity Scene (reminding me of what is important and what is not)
(6) Alito is personally popular with court personnel reflecting a well adjusted personality.
(7) Alito's writing style is accessible to the common man -- not unduly opaque as with much legal reasoning.
(8) Alito may be willing to return abortion regulations to the state by overturning Roe -- this would be a healthy development.
(9) Alito appears to have a commitment to Christian orthordoxy -- a healthy addiction.
(10) Alito appears to have the moral courage -- after serving on a liberal 3rd Circuit bench for 15 years -- to maintain his conservativism among the liberal persecution that most of us face on a day-to-day basis.

For these reasons (and not that he graduated from Princeton and Yale), populists should support the President's choice for Associate Justice.
