Personally, I think we'll see a female nominee. Cornyn does sound like potential presidential timber though.

Perfect for the job, then.

I agree with you about Cornyn being a possible Presidential candidate - perhaps in 2012 rather than 2008. I'm not sure the country would elect two Texans in a row.

Cornyn is an excellent spokesman for conservatives, very polished, articulate, with a friendly manner. That's why the NYTimes is putting this out now - a heads up so that he isn't seen by the public as a "new face".

I'm very glad that Cornyn and Thompson will be involved in the coming Supremes battle.

"He is very smart and very articulate and very, very conservative," said Senator Charles E. Schumer, Democrat of New York

And Chuckie you're a lame-brained village idiot.

I doubt with this President being female is the biggest factor in nominating a SCOTUS member.

The liberals definition of a "dangerous man":

To his opponents, the combination of sharp political philosophy and smooth personal demeanor makes him a very dangerous man.

To the liberals, the threat to our country is smart, well-spoken conservatives. The liberals are fighting a war against this threat.

Maybe the rhetoric about our country having to fight a war on two fronts isn't so inflammatory after all.....

Cornyn would be a superb nominee, and I would enjoy seeing his Dim colleagues in the Senate explain why they're filibustering his nomination.

Doesn't Cornyn want to open the Mexican floodgates?

A Texan!!! (who isn't Alberto "La Raza" Gonzalez) Yes! Are there any Texans currently serving on SCOTUS? If not, when was the last time a Texan served?

"I think sometimes he has been a little presumptuous," said Senator Edward M. Kennedy, Democrat of Massachusetts.

The fact that Teddy is involved in anything Judicial is an obscenity.

Personally, I'd like to see a female replace Sandra Day O'Connor too but I want one who's just a little more conservative. Ya gotta love this gals attitude and she's a law school grad to boot :P :P :P
