A very nice move on The President's part, both in substance and politics. She is an analytical thinker, not a persuasive word-Mandrake, and clearly wants to be clearly perceived, not to display a good professional pokerface. She has represented positions to the right and to the left of her own if that is the responsibility of her job. I respect that kind of flexibility and honesty. Politically, she is pretty conservative for a "liberal activist" so the things the hard-left say against her will answer the objections of the hard-right, and vice-contra-versa... The President will say, "Congratulations, you're both right, so there is no objection, thanks to your bipartisan statesmanship." Sean Hannity will call him weak for having not been more commanding, and then lay the credit or the blame for her appointment at the feet of Republicans who voted for her. The President will smile politely, and move on. He is so smooth. She'll be the Matriarch of the Court in 2050.
