He urged Chief Judge Orie Phillips of the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for Denver as the ideal candidate, noting Phillips' federal bench experience and understanding of Western issues. Watkins, who helped probe McCarthy censure, said he sees Eisenhower as open minded and preferring a career jurist. He reiterated he is not a candidate himself, and spoke on Wilson and the upcoming election with cautious optimism.
