(ii) Ted Olson
11. tie: either one of
(i) Richard Epstein
(ii) Richard Posner or
(iii) Frank Easterbrook
14. Alberto Gonzalez
15. Edith Clement
16. Ken Starr
17 tie: either
(i) John Ashcroft
(ii) Robert Bork
In the case of two consecutive nominees getting shot down I would opt for the nuclear option, Orrin Hatch.
Anyone else care to go on record?

Is this a ranking or a prediction? Epstein/Posner/Easterbrook have the same chane a sStarr, Ashcroft, and Bork, which is 0. Of course, they're not getting down to no. 12, which is why Gonzalez should be up a lot higher on the list.
I think Gonzalez is the pick. Edith Clement as dark horse.
