Narrative:

I was kept high due to on coming traffic northbound. Full spoilers and a high descent speed was able to get me back on VNAV path to first step down altitude. From there I started to get behind; got high and fast; and started to reduce sink rate to get speed back to begin to configure (spoilers were deployed to assist me). At 8-9 miles out asked the captain to ask for a right 360 degree to get back into the slot; he asked ATC for the 360 and the controller came back with wind speed and direction (obvious language problem; but I have done 360 turns at the request of ATC before so they know how to do them). At approximately 1200 ft I asked to go around; but the captain said no; we were ok. We were gear down and flaps 15 with speed slowly rolling back. I was fully configured by 800 ft and stabilized at 300 ft - 400 ft. Landing was on speed and within the TDZ. Conditions were dawn and in marginal VFR.
