There's a lot of scenarios. You could have three confirmation hearings at the same time if the president picks someone on the current court to become the next chief justice.

Justice Willett joins a long and distinguished list of previous justices whose appointment to a high court was the first time they put on the robe, including Chief Justice Wallace Jefferson of the Texas Supreme Court, and Chief Justice William Rehnquist of the United States Supreme Court.

Even before the hearings that led to confirmation of Chief Justice Roberts, senators were saying they were reserving judgment on how they would vote until they got to know him better at the hearings.

Politically or ideologically oriented evaluations of Chief Justice Rehnquist should not overlook what a successful and popular chief justice he was within the Court as the justices' presiding officer, ... The contrast between Rehnquist's undeniably happy Court and that of his predecessor, Warren E. Burger, could not have been greater.

[The chief justice's personality is also important, legal analysts say.] He does have many of the qualities that potentially can make for a great and influential chief justice, ... He has that great intellect, which no one has denied, and a personality in many respects similar to Rehnquist's - a very charming, affable, low-key, modest personality that was able to make the court a much friendlier and somewhat less contentious place.

[But Roberts has the advantage of being well known to the justices, having argued 39 cases before the Supreme Court.] He can pull it off because they really respect him, ...

It's in the interests of the court and the country to have a chief justice on the bench on the first full day of the fall term, ... The Senate is well along in the process of considering Judge Roberts's qualifications. They know his record, and his fidelity to the law.

Out of respect for the memory of Chief Justice Rehnquist and in fairness to those whose lives continue to be devastated by Katrina, the Senate should not commence a Supreme Court confirmation hearing this Tuesday. A brief postponement will not disadvantage anyone,

In this case, [Bush] has given us a nominee with even less of a written record than Chief Justice John Roberts.
