We got ourselves a fuckin' affirmative action nomination to the Supreme Court.

Ridiculous doesn't begin to cover it. For the "uniter" Obama was selling himself as, a race-based nomination has quite the opposite effect.

Good commentary on CNN.

Speaking at the University of California at Berkeley in 2001, she said that the ethnicity and sex of a judge "may and will make a difference in our judging."

Moreover, this was not something she lamented. On the contrary, she added, "I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life."
