Sotomayor’s Full Flowering

Sen. Sessions just noted that Judge Sotomayor’s race and ethnicity-based theory of judging will reach “full flower” on the Supreme Court. That’s an important point. Most of her controversial statements occurred in the dozen or so years that Sotomayor was being discussed as a potential Supreme Court nominee and thus, assumedly, was on her best behavior. Imagine what we’ll see when she’s no longer auditioning for a promotion.
