Much better choice.
From a news story this morning:
The choice was likely to spark a political brawl. Unlike the nomination of Harriet Miers, which was derailed Thursday by Bush's conservative allies, Alito faces opposition from Democrats.
Gee, ya THINK? Like this is supposed to be a bad thing. Did I vote for a Republican for president so that Harry Reid could suggest Supreme Court nominees?
Any nominee that doesn't make every last one of Ted Kennedy's ruined veins pop out on his head is probably the wrong one.
Face it, liberals, if Kerry was president, and he picked someone the Republicans thought was just swell, what would you think?
