Alrighty then. Who's in the pool? Name the next nominee
NRO Bench Memo/RedState Rumors
The Next Nominee
[Jonathan Adler 09/15 09:38 AM]
Like Erick at RedState, I have heard that Judge Edith Jones is under serious consideration for Justice O'Connor's seat, but I had not heard that Larry Thompson was also a serious contender. I've also been led to believe that Priscilla Owen is in the mix, and Alice Batchelder of the Sixth Circuit may be in the mix as well. Clement is out. Gonzales is not a likely nominee right now either, but that could change. Were the President to nominate someone who the base would prefer to him (e.g., Jones), and were that nomination to fail in the Senate, Justice Gonzales would become a real possibility.
