Those dems may regret a Gonzales. He could pull a Souter on them and move to the right once sworn in.

Yeah...or he could move even further left out of the so-called center. Those SC judges who "surprised us" by moving idealogically once they were confirmed...always went from the right or the center...to further left.

I won't take that bet. Gonzales is a very, very bad idea, and if put on the court, conservs will abandon the Repub party and hand the 06 elections to the dems, and likely the 08 prez, too.

When the Left starts sending signals that they can "live with" Gonzales...that's when we should start screaming the loudest that we will not accept him.

Yeah and I could regret looking east tomorrow morning for the sunrise when the sun decides to rise in the west.

The odds are just the same.
