3 reversals out of 380. that’s 7.8%. the national average in 2006 was 8.6%. she’s better than average.

As has been pointed out many times, a more relevant metric would be her reversal rate in comparison with other successful SCOTUS nominees, namely Stevens, Scalia, Breyer, Kennedy, Souter, Thomas, Ginsburg, Roberts, and Alito.

It’s just a shame that we didn’t have Hispanic females writing our Constitution. They would have done a much better job than those idiot Founders. We got screwed by the white men!

We could have been Latin America.

She thinks she is wiser than a WHITE MALE simply because she is a Female and a Latina? WTF

Is she wiser than a Hispanic Male? Or are Hispanic males wiser than White Males? How about Gay Males? Is she Wiser than Black Males? Someone should ask her but she will probably lie.

Sonya has an extremely high reversal rate. Something like %80. Its because she is driven by AGENDA and not the LAW.

She is Driven by AGENDA and not LAW.

She cheats when no one is looking but they catch her later and have to reverse it.

Dear goopers, just admit it, your grasping at straws to find something wrong with this woman. You are in danger of appearing foolish, and petty. And to try and beat Obama up on this selection is the reason you are at 23% of the electorate. This is the fight your gonna choose? She’ll end up with 70 votes, and your childish attempts to stop her will kill your chances with Hispanic voters. Do you accept this in order to once more fire up your base? Your party seems to be like a dog chasing its tail. What are you? Who are you? By all means go after Sotomayor, we will CRUSH you party in 2010. Good hunting.

“She’s the devil”
“We must stop this nomination at all costs”

Last time I looked it was a Bush who fast tracked Soto. The democrats have taken Republican eagerness to patronize and put it right back on em. This country is so screwed.

for other metrics (which show her to be rather mediocre), check eric posner.
