Only a handful of people know if a Supreme Court vacancy will be announced later today. The guessing in Washington is that Chief Justice William Rehnquist is now less likely to retire, given the White House's strongly expressed view that it doesn't want a vacancy.

Nominate her and tell the Dimwits that if they filibuster the nomination, Dr. Walter Williams will be the replacement nominee, followed by Dr. Thomas Sowell, efc.

She sounds good to me. Nice looking lady too. It will be interesting to watch the 'big mouth lefties' try to put down a black female who seems to have a good record.

I'd like to know more about her.

I've had the opportunity to observe Justice Brown on the bench. America could do worse.

No, nominate her, and appoint Bork as a recess appointment until another justice is confirmed. THAT would get the dims attention, Bwah, hah, hah!

Good Riddance to Sandra Day -

Unfortunately, I'm afraid Bush is likely to tap Alberto "Souterito" Gonzales (who is also said to have gotten SG Olson's Michigan briefs watered down). From amnesties to matricula schemes, GW Bush has shown no restraint in his grovelling for the Hispanic vote. I pray I'm wrong, but I don't see him missing the pandering opportunity of a SCOTUS pick.
