There are always people who will not be pleased. I'm just glad I am not one of them.

I heard her speech this morning and it moved me to tears.
If there is one good thing Obama has done it is nominate this woman. She has empathy as far as I can tell from her speech and
she doesn't forget her roots and all those who inspired her to become what she has.

I vote all toes,fingers and whatever else. (:)

Me too but a certain faction Congress, that still hasn't swallowed the idea of a black, liberal president is going to have a cow over a Puerto Rican woman on the court.

Perhaps, but such a faction is pretty insignificant, way too small to matter. Most of opposition is ideological, which will very likely also be too small to matter in terms of prevented her from becoming a USSC justice, but its much more significant than the racial angle.

No surprise to me.
