"Face the Nation" on July 8, 2012
Bob Schieffer started with Jan Crawford, with new details about CJ Roberts and the vote on ObamaCare.
Conservatives feel a sense of betrayal about Roberts switching of the vote. Roberts initially sided with the conservatives. Kennedy was relentless until the end to get Roberts to change his vote back to the conservatives.
School busing issues, etc. in initial Roberts term got liberals upset.
Need to go back 70 years for such bitterness on court.
Issue: How the court would be perceived by the public.
