Late update: From a commenter -
. . . having read many Scalia decisions, I am not as convinced of his supposed 'brilliance' as generally claimed. His opinions were clearly unprincipled, results driven, and often overturned even recent S.Ct precedent. He is one of the most hypocritical on the big bench; when he likes precedent, he waxes on about stability and precedent. When he wants to advance his political agenda - he bulldoze over decades of established precedent.
I remain completely unimpressed by his principles and his mind.
