You may be right....I just got up from my "nappie" but while I was drifting off to sleep earlier, I wondered if there will be a 3rd justice leaving the Court before Bush's term ends. Haven't read through the rest of this thread so it may have already been addressed; just wondering if Bush is saving his fire for a third vacancy on the Supreme Court where he can appoint someone conservatives would really drool over.

Man 'o man, Bush and Miers are really catching Holy Heck and the hearings haven't even begun! I'm hoping she's a conservative we can drool over but I really can't get blood pressure up just yet (doctor's orders, doncha' know!).

Of course, once we learn more about her (or ANYTHING about her!), I may need to up the meds and the "nappies!" Or, maybe not.

Let's see: Scalia, Thomas, Breyer, Kennedy, and Souter are healthy and show every indication of lasting another decade or more. That leaves Stevens and Ginsburg. Neither Stevens nor Ginsburg is likely to retire knowing that Bush would get to select their replacement. I just don't see that happening.

Time will tell, but it's kinda like batting against a knuckleballer...
