I'm a liberal and find the comment out of line. You can and should be proud of your heritage. But it should have no bearing on your judgment in a court of law.

I have to say I appreciate the honesty...would you also agree that it doesn't disqualify her? 

It's tough because we need both a woman and a hispanic in the court. Yet I would prefer someone who is more objective. Everyone has an agenda. Put if your werearing yours on your sleeve before you even sit at the bench.... Well I'm afraid that could actually hurt your cause then help.

People who break racial/class bariers are able to do so by making their opposition empathise with your situation. A simple vilification of those who oppose your views ensures that they will remain just that; opposed. There is a lack of tact in this statement which is troubling.

Why exactly do we need a woman and hispanic in the court? I don't really care what color/gender/etc of the person who gets, but I want the best person to get the job. I'm afraid she does not seem to be that person in my mind.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,

To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."
