KIM STOLZ: Is Obama’s Supreme Court Pick In the Bronx?
FOX News Blogs/foxnews.com ^ | May 6th, 2009 9:01 AM Eastern | KIM STOLZ

Despite his high approval ratings, President Obama still has a lot to prove as far as appointments go, given the scandals that have surrounding many of his cabinet appointments. And this is on top of the loose-cannon known as Vice President Biden. The success and smoothness of President Obama’s next few significant decisions are vital. Somewhat serendipitously, the most important decision for him yet, both politically and personally, has just landed on his desk.

Just a week ago, and ironically on Obama’s 100th day in office, Supreme Court Justice David Souter, sent a letter informing the president of his decision to resign from the Court at the end of this term.

——————————————————————————————————————————————-

Sotomayor is not only a qualified choice, but politically, a safe one.

Obama must now search his Rolodex –- and his soul –- to appoint a new Supreme Court justice that will fulfill his promises of “hope” and “change,” while not attracting too much ire and scrutiny from the right. Let’s at least hope he chooses someone who has paid his or her taxes.

President Obama is a man of large gestures, but also a man who clings tightly to pragmatism. He is a grass roots organizer yet also a president who has quickly learned that he cannot be a radical activist if he even cares to dream of seeing a second term.

Obama could shock us all and actually pick someone qualified to do the job who would uphold the constitution.

Zero will not pick a closet lib hiding out in rural parts of the country like David Souter.

His pick is predicted to be an in-your-face liberal from an urban environment as they have so much “empathy”.

Probably a Latino, but could be a female. Liberals are all about race and gender, and it will be done in a way to dare the GOP to fight them.
