Elena Kagan has a lot going for her. Nominating a young, liberal, woman, will excite Obama's base and put Olympia Snowe on the spot. Voting against a woman from New England is not going to endear her to Maine's voters in 2012. Also a problem for Scott Brown. Because Kagan has never been a judge, she doesn't have a paper trail of decisions her opponents can data mine for choice nuggets. However, as an academic, she has written extensively, but the writings of academic lawyers are so abstruse and involuted that it may be hard to find a quote that fits on a bumper sticker, like Sotomayor's "wise Latina" remark. Obama obviously thinks a lot of Kagan since he appointed her Solicitor General, the person who argues for him before the Supreme Court. To the extent one can speak of a favorite at this point, she is it. electoral-vote.com
