Laying the groundwork for 2008

Gotta hand it to W. He nominates Alberto "I'm Ok, torture's OK" Gonzalez to replace Ashcroft as AG. Already the Dems are caving (I'm talkin' to you Pat Leahy).

A contentious confirmation hearing will get him exactly what he wants: The democrats looking like they oppose an Hispanic, followed by his confirmation. Win, Win. With the added bonus that he picks off a few Hispanic swing voters for whoever runs in 2008.
