Especially the way that brilliant and accomplished woman was treated by the Republicans - politicians and filthy repub media. Someone else was saying this may be a game changer now that more people see more non-white non-males on the SC we will also be seeing who gets into the pipelines for the elite universities, the elite clerkships and the chances for judgeships.

In this time of so much turmoil and grief it's wonderful to have some joy.
