So do you read that as Miers being a liberal Dem? Or a conservative pro-life Dem?

Either way you cut it, she identified most closely with the Democrats as late as 1988.

As did many Southern conservatives...

OK - can we put this to bed one way or the other? I thought Rush said the Dem donor was not the right Miers. Did she or didn't she? Do we even know that for sure?

I think that's a big cause for concern. In the wake of the Reagan revolution she was a Democrat?

That hints to me that her views may have been colored by self interest, and that she saw the Democratic path as better for her in Texas. Will she bend her views to preserve her reputation in the media?

Dirtboy is right, we don't know yet, but my reading of the tea leaves is not giving me a good feeling...
