Is Elena Kagan the One?

Interesting rumor. In Politico, Mike Allen says that Elena Kagan may be named the new Judge.

"Look for President Obama to name his Supreme Court pick Monday, and look for it to be Solicitor General Elena Kagan, a former Harvard Law dean. The pick isn't official, but top White House aides will be shocked if it's otherwise. Kagan's relative youth (50) is a huge asset for the lifetime post. And President Obama considers her to be a persuasive, fearless advocate who would serve as an intellectual counterweight to Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Scalia, and could lure swing Justice Kennedy into some coalitions The West Wing may leak the pick to AP's Ben Feller on the later side Sunday, then confirm it for others for morning editions."

Now, this is his view, this is not official. But I wonder if this is true, will it be an easy process or drawn out because of silly Repubs? I guess we will learn more on Monday.
