I can't wait to read Howard Bashman's article that he discusses here. My initial reaction is that I'd be stunned if the White House actually nominated Jones for Chief Justice. She'd seem relatively easy to defeat. Which isn't to say she would be defeated. With 55 Republicans in the Senate it will be very hard to defeat any Bush nominee. But her nomination would seem an unusually big risk.
