Signs of Bush Waffling on Judical Picks

Newspaper: Bush faces difficult choice on high court
WASHINGTON -- President Bush's advisers are focusing their search for a new Supreme Court justice on a trio of candidates who could present the president with a tricky choice: Pick a reliable conservative to anchor the court for decades or name the first Hispanic chief justice at the risk of alienating Bush's base. No one can say for sure whom Bush might pick, but outside advisers to the White House believe the main candidates for chief justice are federal appeals court judges John G. Roberts and J. Michael Luttig, and, possibly, Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales.
