TICK TOCK...............

Thread Two

[Diddle E. Squat]

Not gonna be any of the names floated so far....

OMGoodness, suddenly it all makes sense now.

He's nominating John Howard.

[RoseofTexas]

Can you ping me when he comes on?

[gopwinsin04]

The libs would be bonkers with Laura's clerking for Thomas!

I got an LCD TV for real TV watching and I use my old one to monitor the newscrawl.

Personally, I don't like the idea that Bush would do this today, just to get Rove off the "front page"....

First of all, it won't work....

second of all, it makes Bush look "guilty" and NEEDS to get if off the front page...

Exactly what Bill Sammon said last night during Brit's roundtable discussion.

[oceanview]

where did he post that?

[Fudd Fan]

I'll bet The-Great-One-Mark-Levin calls into Sean's show today ahead of his own show.

[hobbes1]

I cringe every time that guy comes on...why can't they replace him with someone who is quick on his feet...sigh!

Thats why they have McClellan. So people wont listen. When Ari was there, (and Mike McCurry as well) People paid far more attention to the WH presstitute Corps.

Scott McClellan makes people shrug their shoulders and go...So?

I wish I had Scalia's mind. He's truly brilliant. I'll never forget the debate between Scalia and Bryer on the international law issue. He spanked Bryer.

Ann is rooting for Ben Shapiro -- the 20 year old conservative author. Heh heh. a 20 year old justice. 60 years on the court. hehheh.

"Thanks for inspiring me"

Unlike Ted, I'm always glad to throw a valued associate a lifeline....

[ken5050]

So the consensus is we're gonna have G.R.I.T.S (girls raised in the south) on the SC?

[Elpasser]

"You know she was sitting in the WH when the bigs decided to go with Souter..."

Please explain your statement. Sounds like an interesting story there ...

[firewalk]

Thanks for the pings

[conservativebabe]

Ha, GRITS, that's good.

[NonValueAdded]

That is a motive ascribed by the press. It is something Clinton would do so they believe all administrations act that way. They have been consistently wrong, but that doesn't stop them.

[Steven W.]

On NRO: "As I feared, a thin record. I am sure she will be opposed by the lib-kooks, but so will anyone else." ... "Does anyone actually have some useful information — or can point to useful places that have useful information — on Edith Clement's judicial philosophy and/or key cases? I must admit, if she's the nominee, so far as I can tell her record is rather thin."

NRO has this stupid break-up of their blog into these different subject areas now so check "Bench Memos"

[ken5050]

That pic of EC is some 15 years old, I believe..

Keep your eye on Maura Corrigan. Her friends in Cleveland said she was still in the running as of Sunday night:
