If Bush can win on this one and somehow get the Senate to vote, then this will be a major victory for him and his future nominees.
I don't think GW has a chance on this one. Judicial nominees are something the Dems (lib dems and all their sepcial interest groups) are willing to fight to the death over. IMHO, it was one of the key reasons Jeffords was turned.

That is why it is so infuriating that the Republicans were caught by surprise on the Pickering nomination. The Democrats have not EVER cooperated with the Republicans on judges, why do they think the Dems will start now?
