While President Obama’s nomination for the Supreme Court is still top of the fold, the hot gossip around town is who will be picked for the D.C. version of Bravo’s hit reality show featuring housewives.  Here is Patrick Gavin’s take from Politico.

And Channel 8′s Rebecca Cooper speculates about who’s in and who’s not.

“Often called a D.C. social doyenne, Tammy Haddad edits the Web site White House Correspondents Insider. “To be really famous, you either have to be in the White House or have a whole lot of money,” she said. “We’ll finally be able to see these checkbooks and see who has some serious coin and who has climbed their way to the top.”"

Check out Rebecca’s take.

Bravo announced it would spin-off its popular “Real Housewives” franchise with a DC-area installment. No word yet on whether they will be Georgetown, Potomac, or McLean housewives, but less glamorous zip codes need not apply.

“We’re tapping personalities who are among Washington D.C.’s influential players, cultural connoisseurs, fashion sophisticates and philanthropic leaders — the people who rub elbows with the most prominent people in the country and easily move in the city’s diverse political and social circles,” said Bravo Media’s Executive Vice President and General Manager Frances Berwick.
