I’ve been listening to the hearings a bit, and I have to say her intelligence, articulation and powers of logic do not impress me. I would expect more from someone about to become a Supreme Court justice.

Same here.
Another thought: IS she dragging out all of her answers to take up more time and reduce the number of questions and follow-up questions from these Committees?

She reminds me of a dry drunk.

She can read and does not arrive at work drunk. /nomination

That was the knock on her before the confirmation hearings started. They said she was inarticulate and rambling... an intellectual lightweight.
They were being generous. This woman is the embodiment of affirmative action.

Sadly, since the Bork fiasco, it is harder and harder to get someone of real quality on the bench. It is more about the stealth candidate, or the ideologically pure, or the mediocrity who won’t shake things up too much.
The days of great legal minds on the Court are for the most part over. All one has to do is read the muck that passes for an opinion these days to know that unwelcome truth.

I admit I have only seen a bit live and a few transcript excerpts, but shallow, vacuous, sullen, or nebulous seem to fit. She reminds me of someone who has been told their whole life that theyre special, when in fact theyre not.

If sotomayer is not confirmed, maybe bho will nominate maxine waters or sheila jackson lee.
Now those two are articulate, in a ‘strange’ way.

I would expect more from a first-year law student.

All she has to do show up and say anything, and the American people will at least cheer her for being there.
