The Consensus Candidate

Word has it that President Bush has settled on Michael B. Mukasey, a retired federal judge from New York, to replace Alberto Gonzales as attorney general and Mukasey has accepted.

He is what's known as a consensus candidate which means, for some reasons, the liberals think he's acceptable. That alone should give one reservations about him being the right man for the job. We'll have to wait and see what the criticisms are from both sides.
