Given McCain's persistent problems with political alliances on the Right, appointing a strident conservative would be an excellent opportunity for him to pander to that wing of his party. This is critical because one more conservative vote will enable the court to move in the direction McCain and Bush have both embraced -- the repeal of Roe v. Wade.
