For general discussion and debate. Possible talking point: Obama to name Sonia Sotomayor as Justice Souter's replacement.

President Obama will nominate federal appeals court judge Sonia Sotomayor for the Supreme Court this morning...Wendy E. Long, counsel to the Judicial Conformation Network, criticized her support for "quotas" and "racial preferences." She called Sotomayor "a liberal judicial activist of the first order who thinks her own personal political agenda is more important than the law as written."

Thoughts?
