His court, the 10th Circuit, covers Colorado. He would be an excellent choice.

Don’t believe it unless Trump tweets it or it comes from his press secretary. Trump should not tolerate leaks, unless designed to purposely troll the media.

Why would townhall and CBS be the lead in this. Approach very cautiously. I know nothing about this man,but I remember the pr job they did to us on Roberts and Souter. This guy needs to be vetted to the marrow. I want him screaming in pain he is so raw from vetting. TAKE NO WORD FROM LIBERAL PRESS... DO NOT GIVE ANY CREDENCE. WE NEED TO ESTABLISH SOLID JUDICIAL RESEARCHERS THAT WE KNOW ARE UNCOMPROMISED... PERIOD

"sources tell us"

Let us know, CBS, when you have actual facts and not speculation.

The Daily Caller website said the same thing yesterday, and I was discussing Judge Gorsuch’s credentials on another FR website this morning.

Interesting that maga_trump suddenly tweeted an hour ago that Gorsuch was a “dark horse” candidate and that he would be confirmed easily, assuming he’s nominated. Maga_trump is a guy “in the know” being some kind of GOP lawyer/whip. So they want the name out there.

From what I read, Judge Gorsuch, considered a highly qualified and reputed Scalia-type, would be a good replacement for the late and missed Judge Scalia.

In 30 years, Gorsuch will still be younger than Ruth Buzzi Ginsburg is today, and the same age as Anthony Kennedy is today.

“I don’t think they would have given their stamp of approval to somebody they thought was going to be another Souter.”

The only problem with this is that except for a few of us, such as Howard Phillips (and I), most people didn’t think Souter would be Souter. Howard got roundly attacked for testifying against him, but he proved to be right.

This is what she tweeted out two days ago: Jan Crawford ‏@JanCBS Jan 21 Sources: Trump's #scotus search now focused on Gorsuch, Pryor, Hardiman. Gorsuch seen as less of a fight than Pryor. http://www.cbsnews.com/videos/a-look-at-the-coming-supreme-court-battles/?linkId=3363678 Makes sense.

Ed Morrisey of Hotair has read the judge’s book from 11 years ago: “The Future of Assisted Suicide and Euthanasia” and tweeted his favorable impressions. Judge Gorsuch is very pro-sanctity of life. Morrisey said: “In fact, Catholics would be very, very comfortable (and familiar) with Gorsuch’s reasoning on sanctity-of-life basis for equal treatment.”

Judge Gorsuch WAS on candidate Trump’s original list of Scotus list, and has been moving up on President Trump’s shortlist as well.

In the mean time, seek out the source of the leak!!!! Anyone who refuses a poly, should be fired.
