McCormack has never been a judge from the trial level up through appeals. The first job of a Supreme Court justice is to know and understand all of the judicial procedures in all courts, along with the rules of evidence. It's one thing to know of them in an abstract way, but not the same as experiencing them every day, with different cases, in different parts of law.

McCormack is strong in one small part of law. Criminal law regarding convictions. That's her main clinic and by all accounts she does well there. Is this someone you want making a decision on family law, estates, torts, or contracts?

I understand campaign finance law and campaign election procedures better than 99% of the people in this state. That doesn't qualify me to be the Dean of the political science department at Michigan State. No teaching experience.
