Sen. Mitch McConnell of Kentucky says he finds some of her views "quite troubling" and mentions political speech and the First Amendment in particular.
He's leaving open the possibility of a filibuster, but tells "Fox News Sunday" it's "entirely too early to know whether that would be appropriate."
President Barack Obama chose Kagan, the solicitor general, to succeed retiring Justice John Paul Stevens.
Democrats have a comfortable majority in the Senate, and so far Republicans have shown little inclination to undertake a filibuster.
