[Bumped May 27 to reflect added material] I’ve written a piece for Forbes.com on President Obama’s nomination of the Second Circuit judge to the Supreme Court. In addition, expect coverage of the nomination from multiple voices over the next week at Point of Law; Marie Gryphon has already started off with a post on Sotomayor’s controversial ruling on a Second Amendment issue (Heller incorporation, for those who follow that area). More: SCOTUSBlog has a four-part series on Sotomayor’s rulings in civil litigation: first, second, third, fourth. Michael Fox catalogues her rulings in labor and employment cases, to which Daniel Schwartz adds analysis. And thanks to Instapundit, Eugene Volokh, Carter Wood/ShopFloor, Joe Weisenthal, Carolyn Elefant/Legal Blog Watch, Henry Stern/Yonkers Tribune, and Jonathan Adler at both Volokh.com and NRO “Corner” for the links.

The leading linked article at your Forbes piece (“people who read this also read”) is a press release from the White House, but it isn’t clearly labeled as such. Small type in a by-line.
Mind you I don’t know enough about Judge Sotomayor to have an opinion on her, but the hagiography was thick enough that I scrolled back up to see who’d written it.
