Today's the day this justice of the Supreme Court of California will likely be elevated to fill a seat on the DC Circuit Court of Appeals. I have mixed feelings about this, and if I were a senator this vote would be a tough call. While in some ways her views seem more extreme than other controversial Bush appealate court nominee I can think of (apart from William Pryor), I'm not especially strongly opposed to her nomination. It strikes me as more important to block the Pryor and Myers nominations (and it would have been great to block Jay Bybee - but what's done is done).
SCOTUSBlog's new Supreme Court nomination blog has many links related to her.
