"In 2002 Bush campaigned against judicial obstruction. ....In his SOTU speech Bush talked about activist judges and even alluded to a constitutional amendment re: gay marriage. Talk like this suggests that Bush is getting ready to take the fight to the liberals."

Ever think that this is just talk and starting his campaigning early? What has he done about the judicial obstructions? Nothing. Did he stand up/push for Miguel Estrada? No. He did not do anything until Miguel withdrew his name, this should not have happened.

1. what do you think Bush could have done to get Estrada confirmed?

2. assuming your strategy worked, how do you think it would have played in the media, ie would the trouble have been worth it for an appeals court nominee?
