I would have been happy with Ms. Brown. I'm a white man and I would have been ecstatic.
But this sure looks like a good pick.
I have two questions.
Why the games?
Why was Arlen reported as pleased???

ON MTP Sunday, Arlen hinted that the nominee should be conservative to balance the court.

I think Spector was "pleased" because he was shown a list of five, and "told in confidence" that it would be Clement or Gonzolez. Bwa-hahahahah. This is a great double-cross as well as a great pick. Dontcha love it?

Arlen was pleased because Dubya took him behind the shed and made sure...

Why was Arlen reported as pleased??? He might just be happy that the President picked someone who's less likely to have a major confrontation (given he was confirmed 99-0 for the DC Circuit), and conservative enough to get some of the "base" pressure off his back.
