I believe Roe v. Wade will never be overturned. People forget that even though Supreme Court Judges have their own biases, when they don those robes, they have been trained their entire lives to value the objective view of the law. It is not for them to legislate from the bench.

When Alito worked for the Reagan Justice department, he was working as a lawyer for the interests of a political office. When you are a lawyer working for an administration, that elected government and it's interests are your client. It was his job to analyze the conservative objectives of the Reagan Administration and provide legal counsel toward achieving those goals.

The two are very different things.
