“As a former Rocket Science graduate, I can answer that question: Because she is the perfect choice: conservative, woman, Cuban heritage, communist hating, from Swing State Florida and a supremely (no pun intended) qualified and proven candidate.”

And she represented the family trying to keep Elias Gonzalez in the U.S. That’s a big plus in my book, but it could stir up the whole unfortunate issue and divide conservatives for freedom against conservatives for parental rights as what happened 20 years ago.

She would be a great second option, but I still prefer Judge Amy Barrett.

Barrett would be a much tougher vote to confirm -- she'd get hit with a barrage of "white privilege" criticism, and confirmability should be given a lot of weight given proximity to the election.

Getting the chance to make this nomination is a massive gift -- the nominee must get confirmed or it does not matter.
