**If Bush names Gonzales to replace ailing Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist, a prospect that is becoming more likely, conservatives worry that the president will shift the high court to the left, not the right, on key issues such as affirmative action and abortion. **

This is false, deliberate, biased media spin to create trouble for the likely Gonzales appointment.

They are seeking to create a coalition of hatred for Gonzales from the left and the far right.
