Elena Kagan's lack of judicial experience shouldn't hurt her chances for confirmation, a former justice and a current justice said today. Retired Justice Sandra Day O'Connor said more than one-third of all justices have not been judges, telling ABC's "Good Morning America" today that Kagan appeared to be "very well qualified academically." O'Connor's comments came one day after Justice Antonin Scalia said in a Catholic University speech that he was "happy to see that this latest nominee is not a federal judge, and not a judge at all." Some Republicans, while noting they expect Kagan to be confirmed, have expressed concern about her lack of time on the bench.
