Technically this isn't playing politics because any Supreme Court nomination had to come soon in order to give everyone proper time to prepare before the hearings which are projected to be in September. However the timing couldn't be better for Karl Rove and the White House.
I have no opinion about The Honorable John G. Roberts Jr. I am sure he is conservative enough to please Bush's base. I base this on quote from people like Orin Hatch who are nearly peeing themselves with glee.
Until I learn more, I will try to remain above the fray. I am certain that some groups on either side of major issues are already mounting attacks or defense on this man. I have enough faith in people like Arlen Specter that if he doesn't belong on the bench; he won't get through the hearings.
In the meantime, the White House gets a break and the dull roar of a Supreme Court nomination process begins.
