I nominate Clarence Thomas to be our next Chief Justice.

Nah... Antonin Scalia has seniority, and should be the one elevated. Besides, he's the best judge on the court anyway.

What makes you think anyone will be elevated?... President Bush isn't a hard core traditionalist but only three of the sixteen Chief Justices have been elevated to the CJ position from an Associate Justice position. President Bush may take that route but I'd guess he'll go for someone off the court.....

I'm not sure seniority factors in, but I would have no problem with Scalia whatsoever.
