Did you get that from Al Franken, Randi Rhodes?
Miers has two problems:
She is too old and she is too moderate.
There are 7 justices on the USSC who were selected by Republican presidents. 1 who was sleceted by a Rep Presidentand Senate.
The problem is with the COuntry Club Republicans in the Senate. They usually side with the Democrats or at least lean that way.
The only good thing I can say about Bush's USSC choices is that they are better than Kerry's would have been.
