Rehnquist Died

Supreme Court Chief Justice William Rehnquist passed away tonight. Bush will make another appointment. My guess is he'll appoint Scalia as Chief Justice and someone else as an Associate Justice. Since Rehnquist was the third most conservative justice it won't change the balance, but we'll see who we get. Will it be Gonzalis? With Michael Brown's qualifications in the news, will the country be more demanding of a qualified appointment?
