Sotomayor could get confirmed with one hand tied behind her back

[ruggerson]

The media is doing its usual best to create drama where there is none.

Unless some unexpected scandal pops up, she will not only be confirmed, she will be confirmed by overwhelming margins.

Until then, the media will continue to focus on Limbaugh, Newty, Pat Roberts, etc. and their shrieking soundbytes, as if any of these people had even a remote chance of swaying the outcome.

It's all blather from here.

Say hello to Justice Sotomayor.

1. The media is doing us a favor. They are letting the crazies show their true colors and it's scaring

rational America.

[Cha]

7. Yeah, they just don't

know it.

[Thrill]

2. The NYTimes is doing its best to find something on her.

But she just seems like a regular person. That loves what she does.

4. I would be very surprised

if a scandal pops up. She seems wedded to her work.

3. By the time that backlash to the racist stuff starts building and the

Republicans in FL AZ and TX start to apply pressure, she could get 90 votes.

5. Agree -- she was an inteligent choice by the president and appears to me

to have extraordinary staying power, plus heart, mind, and experience.

Let the Rightwing crazies howl and piss themselves over it all they want.
