SCOTUS Chief Justice - R.I.P.SheehanChief Justice Rehnquist dies of cancer
This is not a major surprise, since Justice Rehnquist's health problems had been known for some time.
Now there are two open seats on the court, with the new court term opening in October, it looks like the fireworks over SCOTUS appointments will really fire up now in the Senate. Donk filibuster(s)? Could be. Attempted Borking of nominees? The Chief would count on it - Donks are Donks, all their leadership knows any more is mind-numbing DUmmie rhetoric and tactics.
Another point: according to the Donks' logic on Judge Roberts replacing Justice O'COnnor, they CLAIMED that they wanted to see someone of similar ideological bent to maintian the current alignment of the court. Now that Rehnquist, a conservative has passed on, will they be willing to cheerfully accept a conservative replacement, to maintain that same balance? Hmmmm?
The Chief is willing to quess there's as much chance of this as there was for Billy Graham to be named Pope.
