Next Up for SCOTUS? John Ashcroft?
Edited on Fri Oct-28-05 05:36 AM by Rockholm
Just a hunch. A dream for the reich wing. A former Senator. Former attorney general. Evangelical.
Those of in the middle or on the left despise nearly everything he stands for.
He'd be an excellent diversion.

edit: spelling

1. I had thought of Ashcroft for a while now
even before Roberts, I had thought that Ashcroft had resigned in anticipation of eventually being named to the SC.

5. I had thought about Ashcroft,
but I think he has been in poor health the last year or so, and is not interested in any future positions. I think that eagle has finished soaring.
