"I Hereby Nominate Miguel Estrada for the Supreme Court"

PATTERICO -

President Bush has won, and he owes his base. The best way for him to repay this debt would be to finally fight hard for good, conservative judges. And one of the best ways to start would be by renominating Miguel Estrada -- preferably to the United States Supreme Court. Renominating Estrada in a highly visible way would be a smart move for Bush (as well as the right thing to do).

I have written extensively about Miguel Estrada, who is among the most qualified individuals ever nominated to a circuit court judgeship. I previously described his qualifications in this post:

[Estrada] was rated "unanimously well-qualified" (the highest possible rating) by the American Bar Association. He was Phi Beta Kappa at Columbia University, where he graduated magna cum laude. He also graduated magna cum laude from Harvard Law School, where he was an editor on the Law Review. He was a law clerk to a respected judge on the federal Court of Appeals, and then to Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy. He has been an Assistant U.S. Attorney, an Assistant to the Solicitor General, and a partner at a major law firm. He has argued over a dozen cases in the United States Supreme Court, and has been praised as a brilliant lawyer by many prominent Democrats from the Clinton-era Justice Department.
