In fairness to Reagan who nominated him, [Kennedy] was the third choice after Bork and the male Ginsberg were voted down by a strong Dem majority in the senate.

Didn't Ginsberg have his nomination withdrawn before he had a chance to be grilled by the SJC after reports that he'd smoked doobies in college?

I stand corrected about Ginsberg. Oh man back in the day when smoking a doobie was a big deal. Now the POTUS does a “little blow” and no big deal.
All that said, Kennedy was his third choice nonetheless.
