Do her credentials stand alone?

If she was not a friend of the Administration, would she have been selected?

If she had been picked by the Dems, would she be acceptable?

I think her legal qualifications as a lawyer are good enough, but her history (she was a democrat just a few years ago) does not suggest that she is a conservative. We are told to just shut up and trust Bush on this one, much like what has happened in the past with republican SC nominees that turned out to go liberal.

Although I understand your point, and have my doubts about this one, our Republican senators voted to approve Justice Ginsburg,who then and still does now,have ties to the ACLU.

Did they think she would swing right?

Just thinking out loud, and boy does it hurt.

If its OK to approve Ginsburg, Meirs is certainly alright from a comparative point of view.

However, I remain disappointed.
