How do you bork a qualified African-American without alienating a part of your base? People forget Clarence Thomas got through because demz couldn't take the heat after they tried to bork him. It'll be ten times harder with a black woman candidate.

If Rehnquist steps down, I'd like to see Bush pick Thomas for Chief Justice and Brown for Thomas' seat. Let the demonRATs try borking two African Americans at once.
