BTW, watching Meet The Press today and something interesting stood out in Allen's interview. He mentioned Karen Williams. Praised her, cited her record.
A few weeks ago Lindsey mentioned her name, now Allen? Williams is generally considered acceptable to conservatives but she isn't on the "rock star" list conservatives use to make a point. Brown, Luttig, etc.. Unusual two different Republicans make a point to mention her name, then build the case for her. Especially to the extent Allen did this morning.
I sense a trial balloon. My only question is whether this is from the Senators themselves trying to urge the president to pick Williams, or if they've been given the go ahead (despite W.H. denials) to test her name on us.
Williams was part of the lower court decision overturning Miranda, and is rock-solid on almost every issue.
Almost as good as Harvey Wilkinson; plus she's a woman!
And married to a big-shot Democrat down in South Carolina.
