Absolutely wrong.
There have been other females under consideration, but this one rose right to the top of my list after the abuse she received from Diane Feinstein and Dick Durbin in the prior confirmation hearing for her current appellate court seat.
Anyone who can incite such hostility from those two @ssholes belongs on the U.S. Supreme Court for a minimum of 40 years.
We’ve not had nominees before based on their surviving confirmation questioning. And it is probably presumed that they will hold up if they are men.
Perhaps seen as exceptional because a woman is supposed to break into tears or something?
But also a good reminder that her being a female would not smooth her confirmation at this level—it would only make her opponents work overtime, as they die with Clarence Thomas.
