for anyone who read his bio. Although criticized by liberals as too
corporate, he had a solid regard for how laws impact common people.
And he was older. The wisdom gained by age 60 or 64 is thousands of
times what is available at 50. I would even argue, at least in my case,.
I didn't have a lot in the wisdom tank by age 50. Zealotry is the demon
of young jurists.
