Not Ranked
I don't like Sotomayor either. She, by her own statements has implied a biased predisposition in favor of certain minorities' points of view. Not good for a Supreme Court judge. Her elitist claim that her life experiences have rendered her more capable of making the "right" decisions than white males is bigoted, ignorant and naive. Some of her other gaffes (like the "we make policy" foot-in-mouth statement) indicate a lack of judgement and a profound sense of self-importance. Obama may see her as a means to consolidate minority support, but I think he is failing to consider the damage people like her can do by alienating a lot of mainstream white Americans.
