Jonathan Alter pronounces on Imus "This is going to mean a BIG fight, his paper trail will make him controversial" Reid has already said he is not acceptable to the Dems.
Not to self- buy a case of popcorn today.
Way to go Pres Bush! If Scalito is unacceptable to the Dems he is automatically qualified, let the war begin and lets go to the mattresses.
Alter says what he has against "Scalito" is that he is an "Originalist."
Remember, it's Boy Scout fundraising season! Get your popcorn from the Boys in Khaki :)
He doesn't have to be acceptable to Dems like Reid. he just has to be acceptable to Dems in the Gang of 14. AND the RINO's in the Gang of 14. One would hope that Bush has already run Alito by the Gang of 14 RINO's and gotten approval. IF those RINO's are on board, then all else is academic. But that is a big IF.
Alter is controversial. Alito is not. Thank you, President Bush!
