Carrying a little stick and speaking loudly in Milwaukee

Bush expected to change subject Monday

Four days after the failed nomination of Harriet Miers, the president is expected to name his choice for Sandra Day O'Connor's replacement on the Supreme Court on Monday.

Some conservative cheeseheads have been playing up the notion that Judge Diane Sykes, of Milwaukee, could get tapped for the job, but the AP says Samuel Alito and J. Michael Luttig are leading candidates.

We'll learn soon enough Monday when Bush attempts to shift the public's focus from west wing scandal to SCOTUS nomination.

UPDATE: It's Alito.
