Obama Nominates Exactly Who He Promised

The announcement this morning that President Obama would be nominating 2nd Circuit Judge Sonia Sotomayor serves as another stark reminder that elections have consequences.

He promised a liberal. Sotomayor is it.

He promised someone with "empathy" (as though that should have any role in the court of law). Sotomayor is it.

He wanted an activist on the Supreme Court. Sotomayor is it.

He wanted a two-fer -- a minority (preferably an Hispanic) and a woman -- because everyone knows the politics of who is nominated is far superior to his/her abilities, judgment and temperament. Sotomayor is it.
