This decision is very critical to the courts, as well as the president with all the other problems concerning public opinion. It's indicated that O'Conner was the swing-voter, so this position is more critical than Roberts'. If I was to advise the president, I would suggest he appoint someone more moderate like O'Conner. I would want someone who may vote with me and the other justices sometimes, and sometimes not.
