Thanks. You posted as I was typing. Jackbill, I do believe you will find both of their names on this list.

Not that it matters a whole lot, but my previous stands. President Bush never withdrew the nominations.

He previously sent these nominations to the 107th Congress. The full Senate never acted on them, including Miguel Estrada. We are now in the 108th Congress and, formally, he had to re-send them, not renominate them.

And, he will win.

jackbill's right hoosier......they never got to the Senate for a vote, and their names were never withdrawn.

I suspect it was a mere formality to include their names on the new list....but I don't know how it really works.
