It sounds like Fred is projecting but I hope it is true.
First question is whether Bush is still hellbent on naming a woman.
I'll once again make my darkhorse pitch for Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott. The left would look like the bullies they are trying to beat up a man in a wheelchair.
McConnell would be awesome....esp obviously on the much muddled religion issues. The leftist academy also was very nice to him in his first confirmation, I think, so what are they gonna do now? This would be good.
I have been big on Abbott since I first heard about him. he has judicial experience at the trial court level (very unique) on Tx Supremes, and, interestingly, he has been elected to the exec branch...something which no one on scotus can claim at the moment. So he has the bona fides while also bringing something new to the table. He's also fearless, deeply conservative, and has a sincere Christian faith. He's attractive, smart and mildmannered. He also argued and won the Texas decalogue case in front of SCOTUS. He would cause the left to freak, but, let them go ahead and do so. I think we could actually win that battle.

That would be AWESOME. Can't say I expect it, though.

Nothing against him, but I don't think the next nominee should be a Texan after this last Texan "crony" didn't make it. I think it makes it too easy for the dems to call him a crony again.
