Thanks for the analysis on Gonzales, Stan. Logically, it would appear that he should be out of the running. With the confidence Bush has in him, I suspect he will at least be a major player in selecting potential nominees.
One thing that drew my attention in the first article is that conservatives have put together a PR campaign to discredit liberals and promote whomever Bush puts forward. I believe this is unprecedented and I'm not clear what purpose it would serve. Confirmation of a superior court nominee is not a popularity contest and senate conservatives are already motivated to affirm a conservative justice. The only purpose I can see is to keep political rancor high coming into the midterm elections. What am I missing here?
