Is McConnell Off the Short List?:

In an article on possible replacements for Chief Justice Rehnquist if he ends up retiring at the end of the Term, the Sunday Washington Post reports:

Bush and his inner circle have had tightly held deliberations and no one can say for sure whom he might pick for chief justice, but outside advisers to the White House believe the main candidates are federal appeals Judges John G. Roberts and J. Michael Luttig and possibly Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales.

It’s hard to know what to make of views expressed by unnamed oustide advisers, of course, but it’s interesting nonetheless. Thanks to Howard for the link.
