We all know Obama will not pick a moderate. That he will pick a far left puke like Sotamayor, most likely a minority and or female. Whoever he picks will be disgusting.Obungo will pick an Asian!!
I think Obama will be ready to throw out a name right after the services for Justice Scalia.
He won’t hesitate because he knows there will be pushback from the Senate. He will want as much time as possible to put pressure on the Senate to act on his nominee. All of this in the middle of a Presidential campaign.
