Bush To Get Another Supreme Pick

Drudge is reporting that CJ William Rehnquist has retired and will make the announcement tonight. That makes two picks for Bush. Conservatives shouldn't get too excited, though. Once Bush puts two conservatives on the Court, it will still be 4 liberals, 4 conservatives and Kennedy.

The rumor, of course, is that Stevens will retire before the end of the year. That would be a big one.

*Update*
It appears that Drudge took down the story, although I'm pretty sure the announcement is simply a matter of time. Bob Novak had said that it would come by today as well.
