"Sounds like Bush hit a home run with this one after an infield fly with Miers."

Miers was a pop-up to catcher.

[AliVeritas]

LOL

[varyouga]

Oh man. This fellow sounds as awesome as Bolton for the UN. Let the a**kicking and whining begin!!!

[small voice in the wilderness]

It means that one man's "trick" is most definitely another man's "treat".

I just emailed my Senator, the infamous Mike Dewine of Ohio, and told him he had better support the Presidents nominee or he wouldn't get my vote on Nov. 8th (I'm sure he's shaking in his shoes,lol)

[Issaquahking]

I'm living in Nevada, and if Reid hates him, then I will crawl through broken glass to support the new nominee. Reid represents 99.9% of what is wrong in America!

Go Alito!

[Obadiah]

Who cares about gender? I am SO sick of reading this I could scream!!

BIG TIME DITTOS.

[jveritas]

Excellent news, now the base is united again :)

"Sorry. I do not get your point."
..........................................................
It is obvious you do not get many points..I am responding to your very low level of confidence..Now is not the time to suck thumbs.

[carlo3b]

Yeah, much better to have W go uncriticized and Miers get on then to have the Presdent's feelings hurt..

What a pleasant surprise to see you agree with me on this issue.. You are growing in your thinking as you grow older.. :)

[AliVeritas]

Go to NRO Bench Memos to see the other two abortion and parental notification cases he did...

I understand what you're saying, but you aren't accurate. The Renquist seat became the Roberts nomination when Renquist passed away. o'conner said she would stay till replaced, so at that time, Roberts was no longer the o'conner replacement. Vacancies ALWAYS take precedence over retiring Justices. And it streamlined the process making Roberts both the replacement for Renquist and the CJ so there weren't two hearings on the same person. Granted I would have liked Scalia as CJ, but I can't imagine having Scalia back before the senate with all those flaming libs and gutless wonder RINOs. The Senate has changed MUCHLY since Scalia was last before it. Why take a good decent gentleman like Scalit through the local brothel that is the Senate if it's not necessary? That's what I think.

[Petronski]

Yay!

[mainepatsfan]

They're really going to be crushed when he's confirmed. It'll be sweet.

[epluribus_2]

The rats might be thinking... aw heck, forget this nominee fight - we are going for the GOLD with our Fitzmas hail-mary play and need to focus/ratchet/drumbeat on this instead...

[JRochelle]

I'll try that with my dufus senator Evan Bayh.

>>>"Just exactly what does that leash consist of? "<<<

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ to who ever runs against them and $0.00 to them

Bad press (letters to the editor etc)

Letters by the truckload reminding them that they cannot hide

(just a start)

Graham has turned 180 degrees since his "dissent" with the Gang of 14, and has been, on many occasions, Bush's strongest supporter in the Senate. DeWine got a wake-up call when his son, who was leading solidly, was defeated for the OH GOP primary in his district. Don't know about the others, but I think that the warning shots have been fired: if you want ANY conservative votes, you must fight for these picks, period.

[You Dirty Rats]

The pick is the judge named Alito
A choice that the 'Rats want to Veto
They'll talk and they'll talk
But they can't walk the walk
So they'll just have to chew a refrito!

[mainepatsfan]

Wait a minute. They think THEY stopped Miers? They're even more out of touch then I thought.
