While watching the sessions on the telly, Senator Sessions from Alabama seems like he would make a good pick in '08. Don't know much about him other than watching him with Alito, but after watching the Senator from Illinois' facial expressions and that grump Kennedy, the GOP could do worse. I wish he was the senator from my state.

WE ALL agree about Senator "cute as a button" (Sessions)..but, are you aware that this very senate did NOT pass confirm him for a federal judgeship???
Alas, though, he is NEVER invited to be on any of the talk shows or news...so he has zero reputation nationally...as you know...because you don't know about him...
He is awesome...a former military lawyer...and about as conservative as they come.
I've stated before Senator Sessions is the only current Senator I'd consider for the Presidency or even Supreme Court. I think that highly of him. He's a good man. A True conservative, a True Republican, and someone of genuinely honest competant character. Doubtful he'll ever run for President, but if the Senate wants to play hard ball if a third judge retires on Bush's watch? I suggest plucking Sessions from their ranks as the nominee. I'd hate to lose one of the few honorable members of that body, but love to see him on the high court alongside Scalia/Thomas/Alito/Roberts.
