If Goodwin Liu is approved by the Senate,
should Obama turn around and appoint him to replace Stevens. Only 39 could be a problem.

3. It is likely that the SCOTUS nominee will be voted on before Liu.

This nomination will consume most of the time of the Judiciary Committee.

And either way, he will have only been in that position for what, a week?

4. No.
We don't need a Democratic President nominating an underqualified person like Chimpy did with Opie Roberts.

6. Goodwin Liu is qualified.
Edited on Fri Apr-09-10 06:04 PM by LittleBlue
Just because he has never served as a judge, and isn't over 50, doesn't mean he's unqualified.

He's young and brilliant, not to mention reasonable with respect to the rule of law-- that qualifies him immensely.
