It looks like Bush will get the chance to nominate hopefully at least a couple of SCOTUS justices. Does the Daschle loss break the filibuster? Even if not, I don't think the Rats can sustain a filibuster of a SCOTUS nominee.
I would like to see Estrada renominated for the Court of Appeals, if not SCOTUS. Justice Janice Rogers Brown would be a tremendous nominee as well.
I would love a Chief Justice Scalia, but that would be a battle. So be it, IMO.
I hope Bush renominates all of the filibustered judges, especially Estrada.
Can we bring back Bork?
Ann Coulter, Mark Levin, and David Limbaugh. :-)
Get Spectre - no, that's Alan Specter - off the Judiciary committee - that would help!
Non Smoker that has family genes that allow him to serve till 80 years old.
Plus, stop Hillary campaign starts today.
This is where we find out if Bush will be able to control Specter. I hated to see Specter win another term last night.
I welcome Shrillary. Her negatives are astronomical. We can beat her.
How about Edwards? He'll be unemployed soon. I think it would be a nice gesture and help with that whole "healing process" thing. Throw them a bone.
If you think Kerry was treated with kid gloves by the media the treatment Hillary will get will rival a $1,000 an hour spa. Especially as it will be an open election (no incumbent).
Just one of many good things to come from a second term for President Bush.
Bork! Bork! Bork!

Ken Starr?
Who are the Dem Senators that will be running scared in 2006?
These are the guys that have to be turned to get the logjam cleared. We need to convince 5 of them that they risk re-election if they join in the filibusters.
NOT hillary. thank God.
Uh...no. :P
Scalia is absolutely fantastic, but he is just too old to be nominated Chief Justice in my opinion. That's just reality.
I say, Chief Justice Clarence Thomas!
Maybe Rudy
We still need 60 votes unless the 'Nuclear Option' is applied!
"Plus, stop Hillary campaign starts today."
Amen to that! Start with her worshiping at the feet of Saul Alinsky.
Alberton Gonzalez will almost certainly be a nominee for Supreme Court at some point during Bush's second term.
