GWB will seat a third SCOUTS justice in 07 (possible JRB).

Possible to get a third SCOTUS appointment, however after the disasterous 2006 elections the majority in the Senate will be slimmer or gone - and with it any hope of getting confirmation for a nominee with the demonstrably conservative background as JRB.

If Bush was going to nominate Miers, he should have reversed #2 and the possible #3. Even a blind bat can see that. Fire up your base, and they will look the other way next time. After all, that is what he has seen for 5 years.

Absolutely wrong - The GOP is not going to lose the Senate (or House) in 06 - We will gain 1 to 3 seats in the Senate and 2 to 8 seats in the House (just watch).

This same negative BS was being spread in 2002 and 2004 - That the DEM's would only increase their levels in 2002....and then it 2004 we were going to lose the Senate (and the WH) back to the DEM's -
