 WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush is mulling a short list of prospective Supreme Court nominees this weekend at the Camp David presidential retreat.
Liberals fear Bush will nominate someone to please the GOP's right flank, which opposed the failed nomination of Harriet Miers. Conservatives expect Bush to choose someone with a stellar legal background, judicial experience and a public record of opinions.
For three weeks, conservative Republicans criticized Miers, saying the Texas lawyer and loyal Bush confidante had thin credentials on constitutional law and no proven record as a judicial conservative.
