OH! Pick ME! ME! ME! ME!

I'm not qualified, but I'd just LOVE to be the center of rage and hate in the librat circles.

Former Congressman Jim Rogan would be a fantastic replacement.

Hasn't he been receiving death threats more or less continuously since his appointment, and needing constant security? I've heard that more than once. I wouldn't be surprised if he's decided to leave the post for an easier life.

I wonder if Ashcroft is leaving to prepare himself as a replacement for a Supreme Court Justice?

No, not Rudy. We need him to challenge the Hilldebeast for NY Senator in 06.

He may be our last hope to derail her run for the Presidency.

Didn't John Ashcroft have health problems recently?

Gall bladder, kidney stones....something like that.

Rudy for Attorney General. As a former US Attorney for the Southern District of NY, Rudy would be perfect.

Yes, I think he has some health issues and stated he also wants to spend more time with his family.

Cabinet turnover is quite normal in a second term.

Not Rudy,

Has his sights on 2008, no need for additional scrutiny.

However there is JFK, after all, he was a prosecutor....

that's an excellent suggestion, I could dig Rogan as Attorney General. He was a impeachment manager would the Dems in the Senate "let him pass" ?

A good man, and the left's hatred for him is a wonderful
testimony to this.

But I'd rather have a moderate who is tough and aggressive
when he decides to be with us. So perhaps it's for the best
-- if Bush chooses well.

Specter is now the guy to watch. How extensive are a chairman's powers over a nomination if a majority of the committee is for it? I'm thinking our four-seat gain in the Senate allows us one more seat on Judiciary? Does anyone know?

He is one of the most hated by the left.

That's because he is a good decent man who has served his country well. Good luck to him whatever he decides.

I think this guy has done more to protect the homeland than we'll ever know. He's been a great public servant.
