Do they normally attend his court dressed shabbily?

I tell you what, its normally like an episode of The Beverly Hillbillies in that Luttig courtroom, what with Granny rocking away in the witness box between cases and the kids bringing frogs and such in to scare the lady jurists...

;-)

My "inside sources" are saying Clement.

I'll be back...

CNN John King reporting that Luttig is ruling on a case today in VA and his wife anf kids are at the courthouse with him all dressed nicely

Wasn't the original announcement scheduled for 1:15 ET today... and then moved to tonight?

FYI..CNN's congressioal correspondent Ed Henry just said that many GOP senators have privately said that Clement is NOT the finalist..that it is Patricia Owen..FWIW

LOL. I go out to run a few errands and come back to find it's not Clement any longer, it's Jones. No, it's Owen.

He'll keep us guessing right till the end.

Ratzinger! Hahahah!

Seriously, I wouldn't be surprised if this is someone who is not on the charts at all. This should be interesting this evening!

I know she's dumb as rocks, but why would she go on a rant without knowing (or having some relative certainty) who it is?

We have some crazies on this thread going off on rants without knowing who the nominee is, and I'd be willing to bet that even the dumbest crazy on this thread isn't any less intelligent than BOX-O-ROX.

The 'Rats all have their research done and custom speeches ready for any of the convention wisdom choices they intend to oppose. I predict BOX-O-ROX will be shrieking while still broomborne this evening.

We are at war, and I am concerned about spending,

Unfortunately, war and military spending do not account for the increase in government spending. I would be fine with it if it did. But it doesn't.

but I follow the Senate and they are holding the line, things are going well believe it not. I know you don't but they are. You pessimism is not attractive.

Things are going well America. No doubt. But government has grown far to fast and gained more and more power and control over our lives than should ever be acceptable under a republican president, house, and senate.

LOL!! .. Oh this gonna be fun to watch

This is a blast having a few hours of wild speculation before the big announcement. Unfortunatey, I'm throwing a barbeque for my friends in their late 20's/early 30's tonight, only one of which is not apolitical. They're going to think I'm the biggest politics nerd. I'll be glued to the TV/FR and not be the greatest host in the world.
