Sonia Sotomayor for Supreme Court Justice

If I had to guess, then I would pick Sonia Sotomayor to be Obama's nominee. Why?
1) would be the second female justice, and with Justice Ginsberg's uncertain health status, might be the only one soon.
2) would be the first Latina justice ever.
3) Has been a judge on the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals for many years, one of the most busiest dockets in the nation
4) her jurisprudence is pro-choice and liberal on most issues.
5) is still in her fifties, so she could be on the court for twenty years or so
