My prediction for Sup. Ct. pick and Plame stuff

[MidwestTransplant]

I predict that next week Bush will name an ultra conservative Sup. Ct. nominee. Talking heads have been saying that he will go easy because his approval is so low that he can't win a prolonged battle.

BS. They know hell is coming from the Plame GJ and this will be the only way to distract from it a bit. Creating a huge to do in the Senate that may not be good politically but it's better than all the focus being on the Plame issue.

That's my prediction.

1. And I agree with you

It will be one of those two women he just got confirmed.

Then they can say how open and inclusive they are and how dare we oppose a gentle woman from the old south .... or ***gasp*** a black woman.

2. I agree that they wil try to use the SCOTUS pick

as a distraction.

3. Even without the Plame mess..

... Bush** would have picked a total idealogue. The Dems better fight him on this or....

4. If they really want a distraction, Bush should nominate Ken Starr

Personally, I can guarantee you, my head would explode!

5. or better yet, Bill Clinton

:toast:

6. He will nominate a crony like he does most of the time

even Roberts was someone who advised Jeb in Florida in 2000
