Time Magazine quote of the day

This Time Magazine quote of the day was from Friday, June 25:

“She certainly is prepared to deal with whatever comes. She is a superb and highly qualified nominee.”

The quote was by David Axelrod, White House senior advisor speaking about Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan - the woman chosen by Mr. Obama to replace retiring Justice John Paul Stevens.

Was Axelrod “whistling past the graveyard” trying to remain upbeat despite backing Mr. Obama’s second questionable choice for the Supreme Court?

Sonja Sotomayor and Elena Kagan will forever be known as the two weakest justices placed on the Supreme Court by the same president.
