LA TIMES: SCALIA MAY CONTROL TILT OF SUPREME COURT

From the story: A series of broad-brush rulings could put Scalia's stamp on some key American social issues. A Scalia-led majority would move to outlaw the use of racial guidelines to achieve integration, allow a greater role for religion in public life, more tightly regulate abortion, and strike down campaign-funding laws seen as constricting free speech. It is a prospect dreaded by liberals, and eagerly awaited by many on the right. (LA Times) Not all are convinced. From Patterico’s Pontifications: Mostly, the article is a chance to take a gratuitous slap at Scalia and his theories of originalism. (Patterico)
