Sotomayor a Solid Pick

Sonia Sotomayor is a solid pick for a Supreme Court justice. Despite what the loons on the right wing will tell you, she's a very moderate pick.

First appointed to the bench by George H W Bush, it is hard to call her a "left wing radical." She has decades of experience; she's highly qualified.

No matter what republicans do, she'll get on SCOTUS, so they might as well just let it go through. This is not a battle that is worth fighting for them. With their talk against her being a woman or hispanic, they are not going to win any favors with those groups.
