I never said she wasn't - I only said expediency in the short-term (getting O'Conner replaced within a month) is shortsighted.
However, I'm troubled by many of the items cited on this thread. I would've preferred a known quantity with greater qualifications.
Bush has had her on his list for more than a month, you can bet that.
I'm troubled by a lot of the stuff on this thread, too; for instance, that she's pro-choice, when I just read this:
"During Miers' tenure as head of the Texas Bar Association she was a leader in the campaign to reverse the American Bar Association's pro-choice position on the right to choose. Had this campaign been successful, which it was not, the ABA would have been returned to its former position of neutrality."
