Next supreme court justice a woman?

Now that Souter is retiring, the speculation for the next justice will begin. This article raises some good points about what having a woman on the bench accomplishes. I agree with the author that there really are things men and women simply think differently about, and the case she mentioned is a great example (although I would think most guys I know would be embarrassed by being strip searched as well). Ginsberg is getting old as well, and I wouldn't be surprised if she retired in the near future. Will Obama see the value of having a woman - or women - on the bench?
