[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sri srinivasan[/quote]
I think he would be a good choice. He has a decent chance of getting confirmed without too much circus and poop flinging.
I'm sure in some ways he's too liberal for my preference, but all in all, he seems to be a sane and rational person that would be representative of our country which (IMO) is relatively moderate.[/quote]

scotusblog (probably the best scotus-watcher site on the net) thinks it'll be Loretta Lynch or Paul Watford as the initial nomination. [/quote]

I go with Judge Sri because he was confirmed unanimously so the GOP looks foolish in opposing him.  Lynch is respected but had a fair amount of votes in opposition when she was confirmed as AG.

Optics my friend - while we inside the beltway or otherwise engaged in politics logically think that GOP would look stupid blocking Srinivasan, the rest of the country have no clue who the fuck that is and indian-americans for the most part don't have a great image so there won't be an emotional revolt.

r's Borking a black woman gives us the benefit of ginning up black voters come election time.

The #1 goal must be to make the R's look like assholes to independents since it is a given they will be obstructionist. Use their power against them.[/quote]

Most black voters are going to vote for the Dems anyway and the rest of the country is basically frustrated up to here with what they perceive as black whining.  That's one of the reasons why Trump is so popular.[/quote]

Black voting % isn't the issue, black turnout is. Without Obama, we'll need to make sure blacks still show up in the same (or hopefully greater) number.[/quote]

The issue won't have that much resonance with black voters, because there's already a black justice on the court.[/quote]
You can't possibly be serious. That's really pretty insulting.[/quote]
