The Possible SCOTUS Nominee the GOP FEAR the most:
Post# of 65628
Be well worth it just to tease out injudicious remarks from the GOP candidates and especially conservative talk radio knobjobs
Trump. OK, OK it sounds like Mexico sent one of the 'good ones'. But I still think it should be up to me as president to pick a truly amazing Justice. I'm really a big fan of SCOTUS. I'll appoint amazing judges.
Limbaugh, Beck Alex Jones: Diversity pick all the way, Obummer dividing the country again!
Cruz and Rubio: What, we don't have any Cuban-Americans who can serve?
The GOP’s Worst Nightmare SCOTUS Nominee
Tino Cuellar. California judge. Mexican-American. Harvard. Yale. Stanford. How many Latino votes you think the GOP’d get if they block him?
Here’s a name you need to get to know: Tino Cuellar. Who is Tino Cuellar? The potential Supreme Court nominee who could tie the Republican Party in the most Gordian knots of any of them, and who could thereby alter the presidential race dramatically as well.
Yes, yes; Barack Obama should choose the person best qualified for the job with whom he is most intellectually comfortable. But should that person be Mariano Florentino Cuellar, there could be plenty of benefits aside from having a brilliant, young, Latino person on the Court.
Cuellar, 43, is an associate justice on California’s State Supreme Court. He was born in Mexico. He is a naturalized U.S. citizen. He grew up on the border, and his family moved to California’s Imperial Valley when he was a teenager. He was smart and decided he wanted an education. He got one, all right. Get this resume: undergrad, Harvard; law school, Yale; master’s and doctoral degrees, Stanford.

Let's see if the Senate GOP will vote against HIM.
