Given the the animosity Republicans have put up with in confirmations going back to Justice Thomas, I hope it’s safe to assume that Obama won’t be getting any more suspect appointments like Sotamayor or Breyer through if he needs to make one in the next three years.

That’s just it: In getting healthcare, Obama threw away any chance of appointing any radical socialists like Liu to the SC.

Meanwhile, Obama is convinced that his own personal popularity will be enough for him to rise above it all.
