I suspect that he had to, given that the right wasn't addressing the reality that Bush figured he was facing. Pretty sure they ran a bunch of names by people, and the groups kept responding like Penske (perhaps without the sirens): JRB, Luttig, POwen. And WH said "can't do it; won't fly; give me someone else." And eventually it got to the point where the WH had to move because the right wasn't going to give him someone confirmable.
