Yeah yeah, and the last time, Judge Edith Clements was supposed to be Bush's choice for the SCOTUS. Drudge likes to scoop everyone. He hits a lot of shots. Oftentimes, he misses. I wouldn't be surprise if this one goes the way of the the Clements report.
Drudge's problem is that his main source for "scoops" is the New York Times. Sure enough, the Slimes today has a story where they name Miers as a front runner for the nomination. When it comes to reporting on happening within the Bush Administration, Drudge would do better to rely on an Ouija board. No one in the administration gives the Times any real information, so all they can print is innuendo and misinformation.
