What has been her record on issues? I she mostly left or right?

Sandra Day O'Connor is well known as the swing vote on every close split decision.

If two justices announce retirement, the court will still have an odd number of judges. In that case, there would be no need to hurry on nomination and confirmation.

So 41 was a wash at best - whooppeee! That's not what I elect - the status quo - but it's always what we get. Bush and the GOP will cave - bank on it.

If only Zell was younger.

What a nice dream!


FOX just announced Pres. WILL NOT be announcing his selection at the presser today.

Agreed. Why give the enemy extra time to do their opposition research?

I second the motion. I guess we could keep Scalia too.

Judge Edith Brown Clemens (sp) mentioned by both Jeffrey Toobin and John King as a woman possible pick. King says she is conservative. Both Toobin and King say replacing O'Connor will be much rougher than replacing Rhenquist. Both call O'Connor a moderate.

Dana Bash, CNN Whwite House reporter agrees with John King, that Bush will move quickly naming O'Connor's replacement.

this is historic moment. I hope (probably in vain), that conservatives will support the President's pick, rather than one-issue bashing him to death, along with what he's going to get from the left. Now's the time for unity.

I hope people remember that without doubt, Bush will also get another supreme court pick when Rhenquist retires.
