According to Fox News, President Obama will announce that Elena Kagan is his pick to replace Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens.
President Barack Obama is to nominate Solicitor General Elena Kagan as his pick to replace retiring Justice John Paul Stevens on the Supreme Court, NBC News reported Sunday.
Kagan would be the fourth woman ever nominated to the high court and continue a trend of Ivy League-educated lawyers who sit on the bench, after having graduated from Princeton University, Oxford University and Harvard Law School.
Unlike the others she would join on the bench, Kagan has never before served as a federal judge.
I wrote about Kagan a couple of days ago. You can follow the links for more information. I’m sure we’ll be finding out more about Kagan in the coming days. The left isn’t too keen on her, so perhaps it could be worse.
Update: Memeorandum has a thread, and MSNBC has more information. Tammy Bruce linked to a C-Span video of Kagan if you want to check it out.
The Other McCain linked – and made me laugh and smile, too!
