Poll question: Final Four Supreme Court Candidate Poll
According to the NYT Obama has narrowed the Supreme Court candidates to four.

"The president has narrowed his list to four, according to people close to the White House — two federal appeals judges, Sonia Sotomayor of New York and Diane P. Wood of Chicago, and two members of his administration, Solicitor General Elena Kagan and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano."

8. I think it will be Wood.
He likes to rely on people from Chicago when he can. He knows them best.

3. What happened to the Granholm speculation of recent days?
Edited on Mon May-25-09 10:54 PM by smalll
Just like women, African-Americans, Latinos and any other minority/interest group out there today, surely Hot-Americans deserve representation too? :shrug:

4. Is that the same Napolitano who caved to the right-wing
Edited on Mon May-25-09 11:21 PM by Old Hank
When she pulled the report warning the U.S.A. against possible attacks by right-wingers (using veterans as aides) against minorities and the like?
