No one nominated by George W. Bush to serve on the Supreme Court will be ratified by the Senate, nor is it at all likely that any Bush nominee to certain appellate courts could be ratified by the Senate. We will see obstructionism and foot-dragging such as not heretofore experienced, on more than one legislative front but especially where the federal judiciary is concerned.

Wrong. If there is a SCOTUS vancancy in 2007, there will be a replacement nominated by Bush and approved by the Senate.

Kind of like the last two years of Clinton. I don't think he got a single judge through the Judiciary Committee between 1998 and 2000.
