Sotomayor on her way to being first Hispanic Supe Court Justice


The Senate Judiciary Committee just approved Sonia Sotomayor for the Supreme Court, which would make her the first Hispanic Supreme Court Justice in our nation's 233 year history. Soon-to-be Supe Justice Sotomayor was approved in a 13-6 vote today with one Repub siding with the Dems to approve. Senator Lindsay Graham of South Carolina had a "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em" attitude today when he voted to approve Sotomayor. The next step is the confirmation vote next week. An exciting time for the Hispanic and progressive community!
