One of my favorite Ciruit Court judges, Samuel Alito of the 3d Circuit, is the new nominee. The SCOTUS blog has a good post. Some pundits refer to Judge Alito as "Scalito" because of his Scalian judicial philosophy. This is a good pick by the President, and although the Democrats will huff and puff, they won't be able to blow this house down.
Alito will be confirmed by January 1.
