Don't know much about his feeding potential, but I know he was Senate Legal Counsel, so he's probably got a lot of good D.C. connections.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4507649486482458303.post-16824651184015318042009-11-22T16:35:31.801-05:002009-11-22T16:35:31.801-05:00Who knows where to download XRumer 5.0 Palladium? ...Who knows where to download XRumer 5.0 Palladium? <br />Help, please.

I agree that Brown, after a hot start, has faded in terms of prestige, and I'm not sold on Callahan, but I don't know if Ikuta's a consensus replacement. I would say that Raggi might be a good bet. Actually, Brown, Raggi, Ikuta, Bybee (despite the memo), Livingston (even though she's new), and Callahan are likely interchangeable -- there just hasn't been much time to determine Bush II appointees' prestige yet. Neither Brown nor Callahan has sent a clerk "upstairs" yet, while Ikuta was a SCOTUS clerk herself and Bybee has fed 1/2 of a clerk (with Randolph, who has a decent record, but not great in recent years -- hasn't fed one since OT 2002).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4507649486482458303.post-12096001327629419482008-09-26T11:56:00.000-04:002008-09-26T11:56:00.000-04:00So, consensus:-For Clinton, replace Rogers with Ta...So, consensus:<BR/><BR/>-For Clinton, replace Rogers with Tatel.<BR/>-For Bush, replace Brown with Ikuta.<BR/><BR/>I think that's pretty fair.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4507649486482458303.post-89793733812231290222008-09-26T11:07:00.000-04:002008-09-26T11:07:00.000-04:00Fair point.

Certainly provocative lists, although I think some of the Bush II inclusions are borderline. Brown is insane, and I haven't heard any tales of her helping her clerks once they're gone. How about Ikuta? Bybee?
