Did you know that Dr. Tom is on Judiciary? I think that is awesome and why I am not worried about getting a strict constructionist on the Supremes. I would take him or Inhofe as Majority Leader in a second. Neither one backs down! We would have had Don Nickles if Lott hadn't double crossed him. I would take Jeff Sessions too!
Inhofe went out campaigning for President Bush in 2000 during the primaries against McCain he was so disgusted with McCain.
Having Jeff Sessions as either Judiciary Chair or Majority Leader would be poetic justice, seeing as George Mitchell blocked his appointment to the C of A a few years back (with Arlen's help and consent of course).
Or even better...why not put up Sessions for one of these upcoming vacancies....heh.
Lott...what can one say. Geez.
All of the boys you mention would bring stome stones to the majority leader chair. We can always dream.
