Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg helpfully gives the diversity game away. Yesterday she told an audience at the New York City Bar Association that she doesn’t like being the only woman on the court (maybe the guys are hitting on her too much?), but for the next nominee “any woman will not do.” She explains that there are “some women who might be appointed who would not advance human rights or women’s rights.” There you have it. Justice Ginsberg recognizes that what a justice will do on the court is far more important than whether or not another set of robes will be adorned with a lacy cravat. Senate Republicans should agree. In filling the initial O’Connor vacancy, President Bush didn’t knuckle under to the widespread calls for a female replacement and one lesson from the Roberts nomination is that a nominee with a dazzling record will dazzle. The President should be looking for someone of equal merit who can also take the heat and not concern himself with what restroom his nominee will be using at the Court.
