"An Offer You Can't Refuse..."

Fox News, CNN, and ABC News are all announcing that Bush will tap conservative jurist Samuel A. Alito, 55, for the Supreme Court.

Michelle Malkin has the details, which will make judicial conservatives very happy and already has some far left liberals screaming for a filibuster.

My prediction: Liberals will shriek themselves into irrelevancy, the "Gang of 14" will fold, Alito will be easily confirmed, and both sides will squirrel away cash and rhetoric for the '06 and '08 campaigns.

Of course, this was the Evil Rovian Plan all along.

Side Note: How long will it be before the "tolerant left" will try to smear Alito based upon his religion and his heritage?

I already heard MSNBC reporting about rumblings from people saying that back in the 80's Alito let people from the mafia off the hook because he is an Italian. Give me a break......
