She clerked for Thurgood Marshall. And she was already nominated by the President to be Solicitor General.

I trust a liberal president to nominate a reasonably liberal judge. I’m not going to go purity troll on him for thin gruel reasons.

Yeah, I think the areas where liberals object to her decisions are pretty narrowly defined, ie, the left will be really angry once a year at how she votes. But she won’t shred the Constitution, despite what freaks on both ends of the spectrum will argue over the coming weeks.
