What experience has Ann Coulter had at the Supreme Court?
"Coulter clerked for the Honorable Pasco Bowman II of the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit and was an attorney in the Department of Justice Honors Program for outstanding law school graduates.
"After practicing law in private practice in New York City, Coulter worked for the Senate Judiciary Committee, where she handled crime and immigration issues for Senator Spencer Abraham of Michigan. From there, she became a litigator with the Center For Individual Rights in Washington, DC, a public interest law firm dedicated to the defense of individual rights with particular emphasis on freedom of speech, civil rights, and the free exercise of religion.
"A Connecticut native, Coulter graduated with honors from Cornell University School of Arts & Sciences, and received her J.D. from University of Michigan Law School, where she was an editor of The Michigan Law Review."
Miers was an SMU graduate who also had law review experience. She went on to clerk for a federal district court judge.
Miers has executive experience that Coulter does not have, but the position is SCOTUS associate justice is not an executive position.
On balance, comparing Miers to Coulter, I would tend to agree that from a conservative perspective and based partly on her younger age for purposes of length of tenure, Coulter would have been a better pick.
OK, you're right, not at the SCOTUS:
