The American Spectator hints that John Thune may take Sen. John Edwards' seat on the Judiciary Committee:
With the likelihood that there may soon be a vacancy on the Supreme Court, John Thune would have an impact on the entire nation almost immediately if he were to become a member of the Judiciary Committee.With Sen. John Edwards now nothing more than a thumb-thumping memory, Republicans are wondering who will take his seat on the Judiciary Committee. With Republican gains in the Senate, it is believed the GOP will have an additional seat to fill on that, and other committees.
One name that will surely pop up regularly is Sen. John Thune's. Given his success in knocking of Sen. Tom Daschle, Republicans will want to give Thune as much help as possible to reinforce the message back home that Daschle's loss in fact will be South Dakota's gain.
