That's good news. All we need now is for Limbaugh to come out against her. This will create a civil war in the Repugnican party since politicians would be split on who to support. If they support Rush, they will drive the final death nail in their attempt to reclaim Hispanic support. If they side with Sotomayor, Rush will annihilate them on his Radio show. This is going to be good.
Another 10-15years easily (Thomas will be there for another 20 or so). This will probably be Obama's only nomination barring any inforeseen tragedy/accident. Theres an outside chance that Justice Stevens will need to be replaced under Obamas watch (this chance increases if Obama gets a second term) and hopefully he will nominate a qualified individual if that happens.

UPDATE: Rush is going in on her strong. Just said he hopes she fails as a judge, and he still hopes Obama fails as a President. He doesn't sound like he's going to crucify Repugs for voting for her confirmation though. He just wants her to fail after appointed. He's hitting her hard on her throwing out the firefighter's lawsuit against the City for throwing out the test that no blacks passed. OHHHH SHITTT! Rush just called her a RACIST! He said her and Obama are reverse racists! And said that she's an affirmative action appointment who hates white men.
JUST WAS ABOUT TO POST THE SAME THING. I DO HOPE THEY[REPUBS] COME OUT FIRING ON HER WITH GUNS BLAZING. THIS NO DOUBT WOULD HELP END THE REPUBS.
THIS FAT SACK OF SHIT IS THE WORST. RUSH LIMBAUGH AND DICK MORRIS NEED TO GET MARRIED. CARL ROVE SHOULD PRESIDE OVER THE NUPTIALS.

He picked the spic
First Amendment rights
In Pappas v. Giuliani[45], Sotomayor dissented from her colleagues’ ruling that the NYPD could terminate an employee from his desk job who sent racist materials through the mail. Sotomayor argued that the First Amendment protected speech by the employee “away from the office, on [his] own time,” even if that speech was “offensive, hateful, and insulting," and that therefore the employee's First Amendment claim should have gone to trial rather than being dismissed on summary judgment.
someone needs to take his fat ass out. ahoraJUST WAS ABOUT TO POST THE SAME THING. I DO HOPE THEY[REPUBS] COME OUT FIRING ON HER WITH GUNS BLAZING. THIS NO DOUBT WOULD HELP END THE REPUBS.

ehhhh...cheeks like a chip munk....expected more from a newyorican...strictly from a "can she get the dick" perspective of course.
Sonia Sotomayor?
who?
yeah...thats why he has so many Black folks in his cabinet.
its just so diverse...
wow
Her ethnicity is one of the reason she got picked believe it or not. Unlike Obama and the Black community, Obama and the Mexicans do bizness together...thats why she got picked. Favor for a favor. While most Black want to ignore the "race" issue....and act like it doesnt exist. Peple like Obama uses it to win elections, Hispanics use it to get their people legalized and get high seats in high places. ...etc etc etc

There at least have been BLACK MEN on sitting on the Supreme Court. Also, she isn't Mexican. She's Puerto Rican. Oh yeah, you probably don't know the difference.
I posted about why she was the best choice for different reasons a while back.
I don't know why, but I'm attracted to her.

She needs to take the 15 years and declare victory.
Looks like you were right about Thomas if Biden wins but if Trump wins his ass probably announces his retirement in February.
Pretty much right about everything YP..Looks like you were right about Thomas if Biden wins but if Trump wins his ass probably announces his retirement in February.
And the account suggesting Sotomayor should retire at 70 this year is a certified imbecile.
Only if a major fuck-up is in charge of the certification process.
She ain't got to retire but she's gotta get the hell up outta there.
She'll be 74 by the end of the next presidential term. The average 74 year old American has a 3.7% chance of dying within the year. That's 1 out of every 27. And what are the odds Democrats get the White House back in 2028? Far from certain. At that point we have to wait until she is 78 for a Democrat to fill that seat. At that point the odds of death within that year are up to 5.4%-- One in 20. (Source) Doing my own math, I think that's more than a 20% chance of dying between 74 and 78-- 1 out of every five people.
It is a stupid system but the consequences are serious. The court has a 6-3 margin. Clarence will step down by 2028, mark my words if this shit comes to pass. The odds are Sonia Sotomayor will live to see her 80s and she'll be able to make valuable contributions to society. But the odds are not good enough for her to continue to do so as a Supreme Court justice.
Edit: Just realized I used male life expectancy numbers. Women at 74 are basically where men are at 70, so one could fairly argue they are more capable of serving longer than men. But I still think the smart move is for any person in their 70s to not to let everything they worked for or believed in be dependent on their own mortality.

I hear ya. But absent of being able to predict the future, we must use data we have at hand. And all the data tells us she is overwhelmingly likely to live well past 80. And being that we KNOW she is the strongest liberal judge who will absolutely hold the line on all pertinent matters, its more important that she maintains her seat. We know with almost certainty how she will rule on all landmark cases going forward. Her replacement? Not as much. Further, these next two cycles are of utmost importance and significance.. id rather have a Justice i know in place than a new one who we hope will be as staunch and unwavering and unable to be compromised. But again, i see the value in using senate advantage and getting a new lifetime appointment on the Court while we can. But im more comfortable in having her in place another 3 terms. Certainly this coming when Trump may be on deck. No way i want a new Justice on that Court when/if he's sworn in.
I saw her at Tyson's Corner mall around 2018 at the Barnes & Noble. She looked like she was on her last leg at that point. If she doesn't retire within the next couple of months Trump will be appointing someone to that seat.
