One of the most important duties a U.S. Senator has is to vote on the President’s Supreme Court nominees.  In fact, many Supreme Court-watchers expect the next President to appoint one or more new justices.

So it stands to reason that if you were running for U.S. Senate, you might be willing to tell voters your views on the Supreme Court, and the decisions it makes, right?

Our guess is that Bruce Lunsford has no interest in discussing the Supreme Court because he doesn’t want to tell Kentuckians that he’d be a lockstep vote for liberal justices who make law from the bench, and against justices who would strictly interpret the Constitution as written.

Mitch McConnell steadfastly supports federal judges at all levels who strictly interpret the Constitution as written and don’t substitute their judgment for that of the people.

Lunsford says, “I don’t tend to address Supreme Court opinions, you know?”

Yes, Bruce, we know. You don’t address much of anything.
