Some enchanted president.

Continuing their hard coverage of their "enchanted" president, The NY Times stops their coverage of the Obama's holding hands to tell us that their "enchanted" president won't appoint a liberal to the Supreme Court.

Now Mr. Obama is preparing to select his first Supreme Court nominee to replace retiring Justice David H. Souter. In interviews, former colleagues and students say they have a fairly strong sense of the kind of justice he will favor: not a larger-than-life liberal to counter the conservative pyrotechnics of Justice Antonin Scalia, but a careful pragmatist with a limited view of the role of courts.

“His nominee will not create the proverbial shock and awe,” said Charles J. Ogletree, a Harvard professor who has known the president since his days as a student.

Riiiiiiiiiight. Because we can all see that he's been such a moderate in his first 100 days.

My guess, whoever he appoints will have Ruth Bader Ginsberg calling the appointment a lefty.
