Was she a "Texas DINO", back when all politicians in the Lone Star State were?

Exactly, doesn't anybody here remember that Edith Clement was supposed to be the pick last June instead of Roberts?

Could be...Bush is a pretty good poker player. But, if true, I hope they are in it together. I'd hate to be put through the confirmation wringer as part of the play.

Seems to me the Dems would want her. She donated to Al Gore.

If the Democrats Bork her, it only makes Bush look weaker than he already looks and increases pressure on him to come up with an even more "concialatory" nominee to hasten the process along. If the Democrats let her sail through, Bush pisses off his base. If Republican senators don't like her, then that doesn't help the Republicans in either the WH or the capitol. If a supreme court nominee has to rely on his obscurity instead of his intellect to get into the court, he probably is going to be outsmarted time an again by the people who have turned the courts into legislatures.
