Hillary to the Supreme Court?

After all of the dramatic denunciation of every credible candidate for the highest court in the land, conservatives are dealt this little twist. Hannity may just have a stroke, but it's going to be interesting to watch the right's assault on Clinton, and more importantly, our current Secretary of State. From CBS News:


Utah Sen. Orrin Hatch, one of the top Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee, said Monday morning that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has been mentioned as a possible nominee to the Supreme Court.

"I even heard the name Hillary Clinton today, and that would be an interesting person in the mix," Hatch said on NBC's "Today Show."

The senator said he would not pre-judge whether any potential nominee would be an appropriate candidate to replace retiring Justice John Paul Stevens, but he had general praise for the secretary of state.

"I happen to like Hillary Clinton, I think she's done agood job for the Democrats -- Secretary of State's position," Hatch said, "and I have high respect for her, and think a great deal of her."
