Supreme Court nominee Judge Sonia Sotomayor has traveled to Washington to meet privately with Senate leaders before her confirmation hearings. Republican leaders are concerned about some of her more controversial rulings, particularly that inexplicable vote for Sanjaya.
We hope Judge Sotomayor packed lunch. A well-known Caribbean food fancier, she will find no decent Puerto Rican cuisine in the Nation’s Capital. Maybe the Judge and Mr. Obama could make a food run up to the Manna Carry Out in Takoma Park for mofongo, though that eatery may be more Dominican than boricua.
We hunger for more information on Judge Sotomayor’s DC trip.
