Reality is setting in. With time dwindling for President George W. Bush to get his nominees through, he's looking for compromise. Said one observer of the latest round of nominations and confirmation hearings, "The White House is being realistic knowing that it's the end of the [presidential] term, and they are not going to get their people. Maybe it's better to get somebody than nobody."

Reality is setting in. With time dwindling for President George W. Bush to get his nominees through, he’s looking for compromise. Glen Conrad is just the latest example.
Last Thursday, Bush tapped Conrad, a U.S. district judge in Virginia’s Western District, to fill one of the remaining Virginia vacancies on the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. Conrad is the fifth appellate nominee this year and follows several others announced in breakthrough deals between the White House and the Senate.
