SCOTUS Nominee coming 11 am EST today
http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/president-obama-announce-scotus-nominee-wednesday-morningPresident Obama has made up his mind.
The president will announce his nominee to the Supreme Court at 11 a.m. ET Wednesday, just over a month after the death of conservative jurist Antonin Scalia left a vacancy on the bench.
“I’ve devoted a considerable amount of time and deliberation to this decision,” Obama said in a statement. “I’ve consulted with legal experts and people across the political spectrum, both inside and outside government. And we’ve reached out to every member of the Senate, who each have a responsibility to do their job and take this nomination just as seriously.”
“This is a responsibility I do not take lightly,” the president added, echoing a similar statement he made in a February blog post in which he laid out his requirements for a nominee.
