WASHINGTON — A source tells the Associated Press that President Barack Obama is considering California Supreme Court Justice Carlos Moreno and more than five other people as nominees for the Supreme Court.
An official familiar with Obama's decision-making said others include Solicitor General Elena Kagan, Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano and U.S. Appeals Court judges Sonia Sotomayor and Diane Pamela Wood — people who have been mentioned frequently as potential candidates.
The official said there were other people under consideration. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because no names have been publicly revealed by the White House.

PEREZ HILTON?
Consequences.
I’ll wager that Bill Ayers is really cheesed off....
Granholm is a disgrace. She slept through her first term. She woke up in time for the election and realized that she should do something to try to get re-elected.
I wish she had stayed asleep.
No governor is better than the crap she’s thrown at us her second term. The woman is absolutely useless.
What a sad follow up to John Engler.
It does not matter where the person comes from. It will be a socialist activist, most likely an America-hater and believer in the installation of Sharia law for some cases. Regardless, it will be end of the Supreme Court as a body that rationally interprets and rules on the WRITTEN LAW OF AMERICA.
Most likely the judiciary will become a Politburo.
Jefferson, Madison, Adams and Franklin (and Reagan) will be crying out from the grave even louder than now....

Man....
All of these choices just suck:
—RICO laws okay to use to attack Pro-Life protesters.
—Non-accomodation for Jewish symbols in Fair Housing Laws.
—First Amendment rights can be violated if it’s not the “point” or “target” of said law.
Have you folks actually looked at the list and their records. This is truly disturbing.
Maybe the Court will move left after all - a feat I would have thought impossible considering Souter is the one being replaced. Ouch.
Here’s hoping for whoever is the oldest and in worst health.........
Anyone from the 9th Circus Court Of Apples?
None of his picks will be good for the US.
“Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm...”
HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!
This communist slut doesn’t have the common sense to solve a two car traffic jam. Jennifer “Cool Cities” Granholm got elected by the most ugly, fat, stupid citizens in America - Michigan liberals. I have yet to meet a Michigan liberal who can find the Pacific Ocean on a world map.
Hi, I’m from Michigan and can’t tell you which direction Canada lies. Let me guess. Duh, is it north of the South Pole? Lemme take a swig from my Ripple and we’ll spin the bottle. The bottle knows.
Michigan liberals had their brains drilled out at birth.
Granholm, supreme court justice. HAHAHA!!! It would be like looking for a plumber in the yellow pages to perform brain surgery.
kagan is the absolute worst. i can personally attest that she is far left of obama. scary. if she is nominated i will do something that i haven’t done for many years - contribute money to her defeat and man the phone lines.
It will be a woman, probably an Hispanic woman, but definitely a woman.
In any event, white men need not apply. Period.
