If she is such an inspired choice, then why doesn't the President simply follow the advice of Melanie Morgan, Mickey Kaus, and so many others, and appoint her to a federal circuit court, and then-when another vacancy opens up-nominate her for a spot on the SCOTUS?

Because he appointed her to the Supreme Court.
And you undercut your own argument. If she can sit on a circuit court, she can sit on the Supreme Court.
You'll just have to wait for the hearings, broham. You could always run for president in 2008. Then you could make all these decisions in whatever way you wanted to make them.
