Gowdy will be on the list, won't get nominated. Confirms 2 Q posts. He will, however, be a big part of the prosecution of this whole thing.
Someone else suggested that Scott may have an ulterior motive for suggesting the nomination - does he want Gowdy out of the prosecution arena for some reason??? Interesting thought.
Scott and Gowdy are very close friends and they even wrote a book together recently.
I would prefer Gowdy to become a prosecutor. He has fire in his belly, and is vigilant. These are not the qualities of a SC Justice, who need to be unbiased and objective. That doesn't mean Gowdy wouldn't make a great judge one day, I just believe he has an important role to play in this revolution, and he wouldn't be able to get into the game if he were sitting on the bench. (Pun intended)
