Don't be so excited. Get ready for Gonzalez.

Don't bet on that. The "internal documents" issue can be used against Gonzalez. Since the White House withdrew one nominee over that issue, the Dems could use it against Gonzalez. I'm betting on somebody from outside the administration, either an academic (Douglas Kmiec of Pepperdine, for example) or a sitting judge.

What makes you think Bush withdrew her? With most Presidents under so much pressure that normally would have been the case - but not Bush. Once he makes up his mind he sticks to it. No, Miers is the one that caved under pressure IMO. And I guarantee you Bush is angry, and just to show people that he doesn't cave under cronyism charges he'll nominate Gonzales. Gonzales is a known quantity - at least more than Miers. I hope I'm wrong, but Bush doesn't fear political repercussions. He's done with elections.
