No. You're assuming that the President really does think he's nominating a constitutionalist. Given that assumption, you're right that my scenario wouldn't add up. Given that assumption...

(remember, by the way, that this is the same President who had no problem at all teaming up with Teddaquiddick in passing the "No Child Left Behind" Act - he's a uniter, you know)

Reid knows nothing.

His intellect is so unimpressive that he makes his predecessor, Tom Daschle, look like Henry Clay by comparison.
