So we are to support a consumate mediocrity to the Supreme Court because she owes Bush her place in history?

Nope. I thought I was clear that this vanity is about my being done spitting venom about what a disastrous nomination this was and trying to determine what kind of justice Miers will turn out to be in the end.

You know - - it's done, so deal with it. That kind of thing.

The reality is that Aunt Harriet needs 51 votes in the Senate -- if she can't be forced to withdraw first -- before this thing is "done", and it's nowhere near certain she's going to get them. Many of us are going to do everything we can to defeat W. Harriet Miers, an unqualified nominee to the Supreme Court, and in so doing, to defeat George W. Bush. That's how we're going to deal with it.
