Barack Obama’s selection for the Supreme Court is in big trouble. How do I know this? All week long Democrats have been on the offensive with Judge Soto mayor, touting no flaunting her Race and gender all over the media while daring any Republican to say anything negative about the president’s pick.

I don’t know that they’ve been touting her “race”. She’s a caucasian. “Hispanic” has more to do with culture, and hispanics can be any race.

It bothers me that she mentions her heritage every time she opens her mouth, using it as a crutch, or identifying herself as someone “special” because of it.

Just once, I’d like to have an plain-old American for a Supreme Court Justice, no hyphenated-americans, no “special” groups.
