One thing you will never see on FR is a "wait and see" attitude.There's rational caution, and then there's blind faith. What evidence has Bush given so far that he will do the right thing? The fact that he's never vetoed anything? The massive spending increases? The paltry tax cuts? His abandonment of all principle on the topic of rebuilding NO? Amnesty for illegals? Federalizing airport security? Drugs for fogies? "No child left behind", co-authored with the Drunken Kennedy?

Don't forget, the promise to vote on a bill dealing with Social Security reform.
Washington DC is a mess that refuses to hire a housekeeper.
Voters send the same crap with different labels up there every two years. Nothing is being done about spending, only worship to their the god called other people's 'manna' plus don't forget, consensus, while maintaining the staus quo.
As for Ms. Miers wait and see. It looks like she is a 180 compared to O'Connor. More conservative as Ms. Miers ages as opposed to more a "tolerant" and expert of international law (In relation to the US Constitution), as O'Connor became when she aged.
