Why did Ronald Reagan appoint Sandra Day O’Connor to the Supreme Court? Did he ever express regret after Planned Parenthood v. Casey of 1992?

I know he tried to appoint another Scalia-minded judge, Robert Bork, but was unable to and forced to settle for moderate Kennedy, but why did he appoint O’Connor when the GOP controlled the Senate? And why was she unanimously confirmed?
