In the coming days, it will become known that she is extremely pro-life. I am getting this information from decent sources. She has been actively involved in church, including working as a Sunday School teacher and doing missions work. She is very conservative. I opposed this nomination strongly yesterday, but am willing to give it a chance. It could turn out to be one of the best in the past 30 years.

This describes me and I can guarantee you I am not in the top 1% of the legal profession in this country NOR do I believe I should be on the Supreme Court.

I'm reading that she is a constitutionalist who will not legislate from the bench.

That, to me, is enough.

She will be the opposite of Breyer and Stevens ... an unknown who will tilt right on Constitutional issues, not left like the dead-souls other two.

She is still too old and not of SCOTUS caliber. What if, once given this power, she goes hard Left. She doesn't have a paper trail to keep her honest. All she has is her old Mother-- likely a Yellow Dog Democrat.

Given his willingness to put his reputation on the line, I will trust James Dobson on this one and forget the likes of George Will. Will stayed on as ABC's "token" conservative and Sunday-morning **ttboy long after it was obvious that he was considered a joke and his insights were food for mockery. Dobson has said that Miers is the real thing and I will take his word for it.

I could care less if she is pro-life, an evangelical Christian, or personally conservative. Will she judge based on the constitution, and is she well-qualified for that task? I think George Will is right to be outraged.
