Of course they are. He is very well liked in Congress and his resume is fantastic. That is why he was suggested for SOS in the first place.

I really don't give a shit about skin color and all that crap. Obama is picking people that have creditentials and that's needed in this CRAPPY TIME.

People bitch and whine, no matter what. *roll eyes*

I think the odds of this happening are pretty good. Sonia Sotomayor, specifically, was named in an article about Obama's SC possibilities.
Quote:
Sonia Sotomayor, 54 -- After growing up in a Bronx housing project, Sotomayor has risen to become a judge on one of the most powerful courts in the land: the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit. As a Hispanic woman, Sotomayor would make an attractive candidate if Obama is looking to diversify the court. There has never been a Hispanic on the Supreme Court, and there is only one woman currently on the bench, Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Sotomayor might also have bipartisan appeal. She is politically moderate, and President George H.W. Bush appointed her to her first judgeship.
