From election day to today, we have been given a glimpse of what a Bush presidency will be like. He surrounded himself with a bunch of top notch people and let them run the show. Gore, on the other hand, was all over the mess on his side. Clearly, the Bush team was better and more organized, despite the fact that Bush is supposedly an intellectual lightweight compared to Gore.

You don't have to be the smartest man in the country to be president. Hell, I wouldn't want to be led by that man. Bush showed us his leadership style the last 5 weeks and I liked it.

Scalia is the obvious successor to Rehnquist, and a worthy one in my view. He's a brilliant jurist who stands out even in that company. Bush will probably grant his wish. Despite this, I doubt Bush will try to pack the court with more hard liners. If nothing else, he has to get 'em past congress, eh? On the other hand, I think the Reps will work like heck to avoid naming another Souter. I'd bet on a few more like Sandra Day.
