I think that we have many reasons to support the Miers nomination. She, like John Roberts, has a strong faith and lives it out in her daily life.

Would it have been nice to see a more credentialed conservative like Janice Rogers Brown or Michael Luttig? You bet. The simple fact though is that Bush can't trust Senate Republican leaders to back him on a more controversial nominee.

Besides, Bush is counting on Miers not being his last appointment to the Supreme Court.

I was counting on that myself! Stevens, or Ginsberg? [please, Ginsberg, please!]

Thank you for sharing the info on the filibuster...but, I thought I had read somewhere (wikipedia?) that the VP can end it...???
