Actually, she's not really giving answers to anyone's questions. She's not taking a stand on anything, so it's not deception, it's just avoidance.
She will be confirmed based on her resume...and her ability not to cause a controversy during the hearings. When she actually takes the bench as a Supreme Court Justice, we probably won't hear that much about her because he record says she's neither as liberal and radical as Republicans are painting her or as moderate and even-handed as Democrats are painting her.
One justice retires and another fills the spot....Sotomayor is probably less liberal than her replacement, so the makeup of the court will not change nearly as much as it did with the Bush appointees. Republicans should be happy to break even, if not net a small gain in the political makeup of the court.
