Good move, Joe knows what to look for and what could cause problems.
Vice President Biden has been charged with drawing up a list of possible nominees to replace Justice David Souter on the Supreme Court, the Washington Post reports.
Five current members of the Supreme Court were confirmed by the U.S. Senate when Biden was chair of the Judiciary Committee.
Bloomberg: "By making his plans known now, rather than waiting until the end of the term as other justices have done, Souter gives Obama extra time to choose a successor and ensure Senate confirmation before the next term starts in October. Souter could stay on the court until his successor is confirmed by the Senate, which is controlled 59-40 by Democrats."
The AP reviews the process for filling a Supreme Court vacancy.
