the guy's point is this:
its not just blackballing someone because his/her views are extreme. the Dems are applying a higher standard (or lower actually) to determine when to fight when the candidate is Hispanic/black.
He says a black judge who isn't liberal can't advance.
Maybe the Reps. improperly fought some nominations, but it was based upon the merits of how the nominee appear to think or rule. They didn't block someone because of what he was.
