His first term was all about surrounding himself with heavyweights (Powell, Cheney, Rumsfeld). This term is all about surrounding himself with his people.

I think short of credible allegations of child molestation, SO beating or putting pubical hairs on co-workers coke cans, Luttig, McConnell, Jones, Clement (sorry Ty), and Alito are all confirmable. JRB would be a fight, but a damn interesting one. Owens would get dinged in all likelihood.
Generally I think you are right, but Gonzalez is more qualified for a seat than this lady and he is Bush's people. Or how about Ashcroft?
