Edith Clement may have a lock on the job. She is of course a female.. but she's also from Louisiana.

Gonzales will be the worst pick.

Garza will be a decent pick.

Edith Clement has the following benefits (if named CJ also):

1) Female (O'Connor replacement - female)
2) Conservative (Not as much as I want though)
3) First female CJ

She is also a friend of Mary Landrieu. Enough said.

Joy Clement (what everyone in Louisana knows her by--that's her nickname) would be an excellent choice for Chief Justice for SCOTUS, and with the disaster down there a practical shoe-in in the senate...

Woman
Conservative
from Louisiana....

count on her being on the short list at least...
