Dems Urge Bush to Pick Reid's 2nd Court Choice by Scott Ott (2005-10-27) -- In the wake of Harriet Miers' aborted Supreme Court nomination, Democrats have urged President George Bush to replace her with Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid's second choice for the high court. Sen. Reid, D-NV, said he has already forwarded the next name on his list to Mr. Bush, adding, "this one has more experience and should do better with what the president and I call 'the base'." "It's time to go to Plan B," Sen. Reid said. "You wake up on the morning after, and you just have to go on with your life." Meanwhile, Miss Miers told reporters she's eager to return to her job as White House counsel, "where it isn't so important to have just one opinion about every major issue."
