Neither one of the Bush's are as conservative as was Reagan,

Reagan put Kennedy and O'Connor on the Court.

Roberts and Meirs will be much better than those two.

"Reagan put Kennedy and O'Connor on the Court."

Reagan also put Scalia on the court, and Kennedy was pick #3 after Bork got Borked.

If Miers was pick #3 after we lost on Luttig, McConnell, Edith Jones and Karen Williams, I'd understand.

But after Roberts, and given Bush's great options, it's an underwhelming pick.

Besides, we dont know Miers would be better than OConnor.
Not yet anyway.

Not even close to a comparison. Reagan had to get O'Connor through a heavy Dem Senate. If Bush won't stand up with 55 Senators then when.
