"Bush knows her well, so I think we have to assume she is on the same wave-length."

- The choice is a real scream. Drudge has posted a thumb nail sketch of her background. First of all, by working closely with Bush for a number of years, he is satisfied that he really, really, knows she is a conservative. By never having been a judge, she has no record of written opinions that the left could use to bludgeon her with at the confirmation hearings. They are left with nothing to grab on to.
Bwahahahahaha!!! - Brilliant!

And how many times has the Prez mentioned Sandra Day OConnor? Harriet Miers is David Souter in skirts (at least during working hours.)

By never having been a judge...

I seems to me that Staying in a Holiday INN last night does not prepare one to serve on the Supreme Court.

You nailed it. The "Real Conservatives" just want a big fight over abortion because they think they are being let down. The "Real Liberals" just want a big fight over abortion because they need to use fear to raise funds. Let the fun begin.

I don't call this brilliant. This president makes good appointments, so until I see evidence to the contrary, I will, for now, assume that she is a good, solid conservative. But I will follow the nomination process very closely. I know for certain that she must be very competent because this man cannot stand incompetence and she's worked with him in a number of roles. That said, this sends out a lot of harmful signals, IMHO. It means that this president may have lost his will for a fight. The dems will sense this and begin to circle him like sharks circle blood in the water. It also gives the signal that if you are a conservative, never, ever make it known if you have judicial career aspirations. We need to have conservative judges on the bench who can speak and aspire to continue to get ahead in their career. This was not the nomination he should have made, even if she turns out to be good. Plus, if the dems had fought against it a JRB, it would have hurt them in the polls in 2006.

Yes, but did she judge horses like Mike Brown? That would count for something.
