Update [2005-7-19 16:2:29 by Erick]: Within the past hour, staffers on the Senate Judiciary Committee have begun steering people away from Edith Brown Clements.

You know, I really am sick of all this wild speculation -- especially from our side.

FGS, can't people wait?

They are going to fight him every step of the way anyway.

So are the "purists" on this very forum.

"John King just now on CNN speculating on Janice Rogers Brown as a "wild card" until he can determine where her children are and how they are dressed.

Don't toy with me like that CNN. If it's JRB I'm celebrating, top shelf style.

"I think he means nominate Jones and if the a-rats don't like it, go nukular."

I've written in prior posts that I do like and support the President if he nominates Edith Clement, not Jones. I haven't read on Jones and, therefore, cannot give an opinion. And, YES, a picture would also help tremendously.

does he make a gutsy pick, or does he put Gonzales up there.
-----
You could be correct. However, it's fun to second guess the system. Gonzales is a good man, but if it's Clement and Gonzales we wind up with no real conservatives, IMO. My problem w/Gonzales is his wife. She's a bleeding heart Democrat and wives can influence husbands. However, my issue is NOT abortion, but everything else.

I'd like to see RvW overturned only because the Fed Gov has no business in those issues. All the states, sans Utah, will still vote for some form of abortion. However, abortion is NOT strong on this presidents mind, nore mine.

I too am optimistic about a good pick .. and the media knows what they usually do .. which is to say that they are clueless.

Remember when Bubba was upset with Tim Russert and the name of Bubba's dog was leaked to Tim? Russert went on the air all excited with his "scoop", then found out that Bubba gave him "poop" (i.e. the wrong name!) That was freaking hilarious!

Nobody knows anything. GWB must be laughing hysterically at all of the frantic efforts to find out who has been selected! Whoever it is will already be under Secret Service wraps.

Bush is obviously sending out trial baloons. People who wait lose out.

How likely to be true are the rumors about Ginsburg and Stevens retiring due to health problems, do you think? Personally, though, after the eminent domain case, I think pseudo-conservatives like Souter are almost worse than the far left ones who are obviously "out there".
