Obama has nominated an Hispanic to be a supreme court judge. She strongly believes that her Hispanic background gives her a unique and valuable perspective and will improve the Supreme Court. Being a representative Hispanic, she will not come from an Ivy League background (unlike too many other justices), and her attitudes will mirror those of the Hispanic community. She'll be opposed to abortion, and she'll also oppose gay-marriage. She'll adhere to traditional Catholic values. She ought to be a popular choice among conservatives.
Oh, no wait ...
