I'm not excited about the Miers nomination and I am not happy about the smearing that has occurred of longtime conservatives (limbaugh, weyrich, etc.) but my anger is focused directly on the despicable liberal Republicans in the Senate who set the stage for this situation----most especially McCain and Specter. . . . The WH never should have trusted Specter but that's not an excuse for the vile behavior of that man. As far as McCain goes----I will do anything in my power to prevent him from gaining the Oval Office. I'll be here waiting for him in Iowa in 08.

I agree, the squishy liberal Senate Republicans are despicable. But I am not sure they are entirely at fault.

Some are saying that the President would have preferred to choose someone other than Miers, but he could not count on the support of Senators such as McCain and Specter. But the President says that Miers is the best choice. Could it be that he means it?

Or to put it another way, perhaps George W. Bush agrees with John McCain and Arlen Specter on most, if not all issues. That would explain why the President campaigned for Senator Specter. And why the President did not veto McCain-Feingold.

Can anyone name a policy over which George W. Bush and John McCain seriously disagree?
