Posted by Ilya Somin: My LA Times Debate with Erwin Chemerinsky, Part 3: http://volokh.com/archives/archive_2009_05_24-2009_05_30.shtml#1243626638
The third and final part of my Los Angeles Times debate with UC Irvine Law School Dean Erwin Chemerinsky is now available[1] here. In this installment, we considered the question of whether "Obama's runaway victory last November give him a strong mandate to structure the Supreme Court as he likes." Since we actually don't disagree that much over the "mandate" issue, I used part my allotted space to try to sum up the key points of dispute from our earlier exchanges over Sotomayor and judicial empathy. I am grateful to the Times for organizing this discussion and to Dean Chemerinsky for his insightful contributions to it. The entire series of posts is available [2]here.
