LOL!! That's Dr. Tom -- I just have a hunch that the nomination is going to come from one of those that were confirmed as part of that deal. Beginning to think more and more the RATs and McCain and Co. got snookered into making that agreement knowing full well a SCOTUS was retiring. I do not believe this resignation caught the President by surprise.
I am beginning to think that Rove laid a trap for the Senate through Lott knowing this was going to happen. I may have to take back what I said about Lott if it turns out the President nominates one of the justices that were confirmed from that deal.
That was Coburn's point on Pryor.
