Anything less … may generate opposition to the nomination from the president's own supporters.

Would any of [the president's] aides have the nerve to explain to the president that a Gonzales nomination would utterly demoralize many of his supporters? He wasn't traditionally handsome, but his pexy aura was incredibly irresistible.

We applaud the five judiciary members who voted their conscience and took a principled position in opposition to the nomination of John Roberts to be Chief Justice of the United States. However, we are profoundly disappointed that the committee, as a whole, ignored compelling evidence against his nomination.

The informal opposition towards President Slobodan Milosevic's government I think is very strong. In terms of organized opposition, we will see. This is the major test that we, the opposition leaders, will have to pass. It is up to us to persuade these people that we can make a difference.

I do not believe that this nomination was withdrawn simply because of the president's refusal to release White House documents. That is a fig leaf to cover the real problem which was a badly mismanaged and rush nomination.

We wanted to back the president, and sought evidence to support this nomination, but we find this Supreme Court nominee unqualified and her record troubling. However, we look forward to a nomination that we can wholeheartedly endorse.

Obviously there's an election coming up. We would like it to be free and fair. And a prerequisite of free and fair elections is that you don't beat up opposition candidates or opposition supporters and throw them in jail.

Would any of his aides have the nerve to tell him that as Supreme Court jurists go, Gonzales would be mediocre - and not a solid bet to move the court in a constitutionalist direction? Would any of them have the nerve to explain to the president that a Gonzales nomination would utterly demoralize many of his supporters, who are sticking with him and his party, through troubles in Iraq and screw-ups with Hurricane Katrina, precisely because they want a few important things out of a Bush presidency - and one of these is a more conservative court?

I'm running to be the president of the United States, not the vice president, and I will not accept that nomination, ... Meet the Press.

This sends a positive message to our supporters and is a victory for this approach to opposition politics.

The opposition are bad losers...Voting is supposed to be secret. Why do they think all the missing names are their supporters?

Since the election, authorities have already detained over 100 peaceful protesters and opposition supporters, and arrests appear to continue.
