Federal Judiciary

Reminders About the Sotomayor Nomination

By AndrewHyman

This blog is obviously for supporting nominees, and since we probably won't be supporting confirmation of Judge Sotomayor, there's not much point in saying a whole heck of a lot here, especially before the hearings begin.

But, feel free to discuss the nomination in the comments section. I very highly recommend reading what Ed Whelan has had to say about the Sotomayor nomination. Following are some further links to relevant background material on Sonia Sotomayor, that I've plagiarized from the Federalist Society....
