[Hattie]

This is what many of us have been trying to get across for days now.

Hattie,

You are right. I believe there are a LOT more people outside the beltway, in middle America, who like the nomination and want H. Miers to get a fair judiciary hearing. Many like the nomination, on it's face, and don't want a "tricky question" hearing but one on par with John Robert's in the way of respect.

I know of someone, who I have no idea how she votes. She isn't a fan of conservative commentators, but I can't quite see her as a Kerry voter. She is, probably, a swing voter. When Condoleeza Rice was grilled by the 911 commission, she was livid. Not because CR was a woman, but because she was an accomplished person who was being treated without respect. I think that if the judiciary committee attacks H. Miers unfairly and for the sport of it, rather than honestly trying to determine the same type of info they did John Roberts, voters will not be amused.
