The Guardian: Conservatives, however, disagree that the court faces a crisis of legitimacy. Curt Levey, president of the rightwing advocacy group the Committee for Justice, said: “I’ve thought up until this point the supreme court was a little to the left of the American people on many issues: abortion, gay marriage, the death penalty, immigration."

“Their motivation has little to do with concern about the victims of sexual assault -- just look at Democrats' lack of concern about the charges against Keith Ellison -- and everything to do with the approaching election...”
The Hill: Gray said a lot has changed since Clarance Thomas’ confirmation hearings 27 years ago. He founded The Committee for Justice, which is a nonprofit group that is a voice for conservative judicial appointments...
