Ann is right, he is a stealth candidate. She is also right that Republicans have had no luck with such candidates. I am somewhat reassured by Mark Levin's endorsement, but he is not infallible. I hope Bush's strategy is to nominate his safest conservative choice for the first seat, and to really rattle the liberal's cage on the second choice. David Boies was on Scarborough last night and he was too comfortable with Roberts for me to be comfortable.
He will likely be arguing in front of the new Associate Justice. It would not serve his interests to slam him. There will be plenty of that from others...
