It will get air time today, but when the papers are served, I'd say media attention will go to Fitzgerald and the people who are indicted. Attention won't come back to the SCOTUS until another nomination is made. And frankly, I can't see Bush being allowed to make another nomination on his own, as this one was obviously done. The trouble is, if he chooses someone to appease the far right, like Priscilla Owens, she can be painted as being too extreme. And Bush can be portrayed as being interested in only a small faction of his own party, as the DNC's email stated.
