Coming Soon: Supreme Courtship

Next week I'm hoping to post my review of Christopher Buckley's new novel, Supreme Courtship. I recently mentioned Mr. Buckley's novel Boomsday in this blog, and his publisher was nice enough to send me an advance copy of his new work, which will be released September 3rd. I haven't found any probate or estate planning-related passages, but thought people might be intrigued by the plot:

A desperate politician decides (on the spur of the moment, after meeting her only once) to select an attractive, down-to-earth yet inexperienced woman for an important role in American government.

Does that sound like any situation in current American politics?

In Supreme Courtship, the role in question is Supreme Court justice, and woman is America's most popular TV judge, Pepper Cartwright (sort of a cross between Oprah and Judge Judy, but with the looks of Julia Roberts, from how she's described).
