ReplyDeleteThat is so great.
Are there two David Haimes? Or did you include him twice?
ReplyDeleteWhy did you not put thornton at the top? You will be called to answer!!!
ReplyDeleteHurray for Prof. Bascuas and for Judge Rodriguez de Jongh.
ReplyDelete@8:41. Thanks. Fixed.
ReplyDeleteIt's Thornton's time, but here are my top 5 in no particular order:
ReplyDeleteJohn Thornton
Daryl E. Trawick
Ricardo J. Bascuas
Barry Seltzer
Darrin Gayles
It is disconcerting, however, that more well-regarded lawyers from private practice are not taking an interest. I do not like the trend that has developed where the state-court system has become a farm for the federal bench.
This is a pretty qualified group IMO.
ReplyDeleteQualified group indeed. If look at experience and well roundedness, Marjorie Graham should be near the top.
ReplyDeleteBarzee is tops....period
ReplyDeleteRobin Rosenberg is getting one of the spots and anybody who says otherwise just ain't in the know, you know?
ReplyDeletethornton is staying where he is. he's got no shot in DC.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know where I can find the application for the 11th Circuit spot?
ReplyDeleteYes, guaranteed Robin Rosenberg gets a spot b/c of the democratic connections (her parents are big Democratic fundraisers and donors). It shouldn't factor in, but it will.
ReplyDeleteMiami loves Migna
ReplyDeleteMigna loves Miami
Oh Obama can't you see?
Miami loves Migna
Migna loves Miami
put her on the bench by January 3...
Judge Bidwill is one the best judges in South Florida, state or federal. I know his conections are more Republican, but he would be great in the SDFla.
ReplyDeleteIf we are basing this on merit, then Professor Bascuas should be the clear frontrunner.
