Hillary for the Supreme Court
I have an idea. President Bush is being criticized for nominating a lawyer who has never worn judicial robes (never mind that Rehnquist never did either, before his confirmation) for a spot on the Supreme Court. Fine, so here's my idea, and I think it's a really funny one--he should nominate Hillary Clinton instead. She's a lawyer, she's a she (until someone can actually prove otherwise), and she's the left's poster girl.
And then, since you know darned well that the Dems would have no choice but to confirm her to the Supreme Court (and since the Republicans would get the joke, she'd win unanimously!), we could watch them all implode, every single Democrat in the Senate. They would have to approve a Bush nominee, who would then be out of the running for the White House for the forseeable future.
I am, of course, kidding, but wouldn't it be fun?
