Bush likely to name 2nd Supreme Court nominee

Updated: 2005-09-30 20:00

President Bush is holding a short list of candidates, believed topped by women and minorities, to fill a vacancy on the Supreme Court and join new Chief Justice John Roberts.

Bush, it was thought, would appoint his second nominee soon after the Senate confirmed Roberts on Thursday to succeed the late William H. Rehnquist.

White House advisers now say an announcement probably will not come until next week. That timeline allows the spotlight to remain on the administration's success in getting Roberts confirmed in a 78-22 vote and promptly sworn in.

Advocacy groups on the right are expecting Bush to name a solid conservative. Liberal groups are making a late push for a moderate.

Senate Democrats say if the president submits the name of any previous judicial nominee whom they have filibustered — including federal appellate judges Priscilla Owen, Janice Rogers Brown, William Pryor and Hispanic lawyer Miguel Estrada — they will fight to the bitter end.
