Unfortunately that does make sense.
It does not surprise me that Obama would nominate someone to the Supreme Court with no judicial experience. Her sex and sexual orientation are much more important when making a statement nomination. I doubt very much she is confirmed. This is a way for Obama to somewhat satisfy the progressives (but not all, as they think she is too moderate) and to get the GOP on record of voting against a woman. Whoever Obama nominates next is the real person he wants on the court and it will be very hard for the Republicans to stop two nominees in a row. The next nominee will be much more liberal.
