Given the choices of Kavanaugh over any future Democratic candidate, Rand probably did the right thing. Kavenaugh hasn't been good on privacy issues but then neither was Obama, who expanded Bush's spy state, or Hillary. Is Kavanaugh more likely than any Democratic judge to uphold, for instance, the First, Second, and 10th Amendment or property rights? The answer is yes.
