The dems are hoping for someone they can openly challenge. Was Roberts on anyone's prediction list?

I agree completely.

As much as I would like to have some of the already-suggested people appointed, I wonder if GW doesn't have some surprise "trick up his sleeve."

Is there anyone who wants another repeat of the bloodthirsty Thomas or Bork hearings?

Talk about throwing red meat to hungry wolves (the Dems).

Yeah, but didn't the Dems controls the action then?

I mean, now that the Pubs control the Senate, the House, and the committee chairs, they hold the upper hand now, and all of this Democratic gnashing of teeth is just PR.

Unless they filibuster, they won't prevail, and if they do, it's very likely that they would be nuked.
