This is probably the perfect pick for this particular situation. If Obama nominated someone in his 40s, they'd be able to say "he's too young." If Obama nominated someone who had only been a Circuit Court Judge for a few years, they'd be able to say "he's too inexperienced." If Obama nominated someone African American or of other non-Caucasian ethnicity, or even any woman, they'd be able to say "they're just being nominated for diversity reasons instead of on merit" (that many people would buy this argument is another thing, but, I said it's an excuse, not a good one).
With Garland, they'll only be able to say "... we don't want to."
