« hot and bothered | Main | be a statistic »

and so it begins

The news I dreaded, but had begun to believe we’d be spared, for at least another year, has been announced: Justice Sandra Day O’Connor has resigned.

I feel like I’ve been punched in the gut.

Comments

Not that Sandy Day was perfect but for sure I would rather have her than anyone Bush is going to put up for the spot. I wonder if he is going to feel obligated to replace her with another woman… better not be that nut job from Texas, Priscilla Owen!

(Although the sick thing is that I am excited all the same, I guess having majored in Constitutional Law I am always giddy at the thought of new shake ups… even if they are for the worse)
